The very first website is 35 years old today, and you can still visit it at http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html!

"On August 6, 1991, the first website was introduced to the world. [It] contained information about the World Wide Web Project. It launched at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, CERN, where it was created by British computer scientist @timbl@w3c.social."

Happy birthday, web!

30 years ago today, an era came to an end

The Ramones never let up and gave their best every time they took the stage for over 20 years. It all ended on August 6, 1996 at the Palace in Hollywood, after 2,263 shows the Boyz had their last performance.

And Lemmy honored they in his own way 😍
