Hi,

Web hosting began in the year 1990 when Tim Berners Lee wrote the first web program. Many other programs were written thereafter, and many companies came up with their own web hosting service which made possible the present scenario, where there is tremendous growth in the arena of web hosting. It is also interesting to note that prior to 1991, nothing called web hosting was known to the humankind. This invariably means that there was no concept of the internet in 1991 as well. But if you want to find out the history of web hosting today, you would have to take recourse of the internet. Such has been its development! Technology has developed a lot, and the internet is the biggest development after the radio and the television. It is again worthwhile to note that internet is powered by more than 50 million websites, which form its core base. Ask yourself, what would you do online if there were no websites at all?

Nearly deleted this as spam John, as I see you have asked this exact question on other forums, and received no responses.

But I am genuinely interested, what are you expecting as an answer?

"Ask yourself, what would you do online if there were no websites at all?"

And how would you be online if there were no websites?? No market to exploit, so no home PC, just a glimpse of the university machine if you were lucky and getting excited about punch cards.

Is that like saying, how would you drive your car if there was no roads?

Is there a point to the post, ie your own theory, or is it internet keyword flotsam?

Not alot I think I would resort to my xbox, again. It would in all seriousness though, be a horrible world

Dangerously! I would say. (We could buy landrover back off the indians and we would be fine!)
