Ten Years of Web Browsing

AnamanFan writes "Today in 1993, a group of students at the University of Illinois released a little program called Mosaic. News.com.com.com has a special four-part series on the anniversary. I for one will celebrate by spending extra time with Mozilla and Camino." Slashdot marked the anniversary a little while ago.

    This wasn't the first web browser. It wasn't the first use of html or http. Those are the significant milestones, not Mosaic.

    So why did the Slashdot editors pick this story, while (presumably) rejecting dozens of worthwhile ones? Oh - I get it - it's a repeat .....
