The Web Turns 25

Do you remember the first time you logged on? What was it like? We have been connected for years and the past 25 have gone by really fast. It is just hard to imagine a world before application and software development took center stage. With such a date, it is hard not to think about where the internet is headed these days. Some people are actually speculating that it might come crashing down among all the hacking and legal disputes. Although that is not likely, it is an extreme to think about that could one day be true. About two fifths of the world's population uses the internet. It goes a long way to show you how hungry man has been for information, I think it is somehow ingrained in us. Could you imagine being alive during the earlier parts of recorded history, where what was recorded was carefully constructed and informed to the masses (when they were even informed). With all this information being available, it gives humans the freedom to think critically.
