Web Beta: created (somewhat ironically at this point I think) at CERN by Tim Berners-Lee to allow particle physicists to share the vast volume of data and analysis coming from LEP and the future LHC.
For those not familiar CERN is a research establishment whose sole purpose is the investigation of the true history of the universe and the fundamental physics underlying it.
But, I digress.
Web 1: Holy shit look how much stuff we can sell you.
Web 2: Wait, we can sell you.
Web 3: Ha, we can sell everything / all your base are belong to us.
Web (203)4: only 50 years out George, not that anyone by this point knows what that means cos we burnt all the books.
Cynical, maybe, up to us.
