  1. A tongue-in-cheek lightning talk by @codeprogression Pluralsight Author Summit 2013

    The History of the Internet

  2. The Internet. Where did it come from? Who invented the

    WorldWideWeb? Who invented HTTP?

  3. Well ... It was this guy, of course. Umm...

  4. The father of the WorldWideWeb. And we are his minions.

    I mean this guy...Tim Berners-Lee

  5. All you could do was GET documents. The first spec

    was 0.9 - It was kinda primitive.

  6. The Stone Age of Browser Technology - circa 1991

  7. With HTTP 1.0, we could GET and POST documents We

    got status codes and headers We got so much functionality...

  8. We could finally sell our old crap we left.... ...in

    our mom’s garage.

  9. It was if lightning had struck!

  10. The web gained momentum!

  11. With HTTP 1.1, the web was ready to break out

    of the atmosphere... With conditional requests, caching and more, we had awesome new ways to...

  12. Sell our old crap! No wait!

  13. Teach developers how to make sites... ...to sell their old

    crap!

  14. Which means, in the future... ...this guy might not be

    regarded as the father of the internet.

  15. It will be this guy... ...and we are his minions.
