[rtpnet-tact] Web Turns 10 - But Was Mosaic Really First and Best Browser?

[Judy Hallman]

To TACT and CTCNet connect lists:

An interesting bit of history about the Web (below). It's hard for me to
remember how young the Web is! (My "new" car is a 1991.)

Paul Jones (http://ibiblio.org/pjones/) taught me, and 'most everyone else
on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus, about the Internet, and he's still
teaching.
