Now all historical data says CERN is responsible for inventing the WWW.

It's almost like they are shoving this into our faces. "Time Lee Burtons of CERN invented the www while WORKING at CERN"

Huh?

It's all over google, just google it.

The internet was a DARPA project, as far as I remember. Al Gore was famously credited with saying "I took the initiative in inventing the internet" and lampooned for it.

yeah i remember that too. I always laugh about to myself when anybody talks about the invention of the WWW

wasn't CERN created in the 2000s or something? And does anyone else remember another person responsible for the www?

Tim O'Rielly? or Arron Shwartz (original dev of this site) was working with XML and web standards pretty early.?

Bill Joy from Sun Microsystems (now purchased by Oracle) had some key developments in how UNIX systems communicate, this is the internet when it was pre-WWW.

One of the guys I wanted to post here seems to not exist now (that I can find), so I'm not discrediting the idea that the "OG" hackers have changed, many CT spoke of them special ops. If Assange vanishes from history, its not going to be an ME, its going to be convenient for someone.

I have never heard any other particular history, save that before I heard of C.E.R.N. it was being mentioned on Internet chats and in computing magazines that a group of European scientist was working on something called the "world-wide web" with a new type of Internet communication. I used the Internet quite regularly at that time, primarily for email but also for Usenet newsgroups. There were also bulletin-board services (i.e., B.B.S.), but I never used them.

I would like to know what the other history was.

Of course, I never heard of C.E.R.N. until 2011, and any place where C.E.R.N. should have been mentioned, such as when I watched Angels and Demons at the theater or read about the addition of the world-wide web to the Internet, C.E.R.N. was not mentioned.

I remember a Frenchman inventing the WWW & it having nothing at all to do with CERN. I cannot recall his name.

I have been into computer history for 15 years and have never heard of Tim Burners-Lee or CERN being at all involved (or even in existence at the time of) the invention of the Internet.

The French had a role as well. The internet as we know it is an amalgamation of concepts from the ARPAnet and the french and british equivalent networks.

I think the confusion stems from the use of the name CERN.

it also refers to an organization, as well as the particle collider. The organization precedes the construction of the collider, of course.

Also, the internet and the world wide web are two different things.

I don't think this is ME, rather some confusion around commonly used but poorly understood terms.
