Tim Berners-Lee's first World Wide Web page flickered to life at CERN on December 20th, 1990:
The inaugural page wasn't truly public when it went live at CERN on December 20th, 1990 (that wouldn't happen until August 1991), and it wasn't much more than an explanation of how the hypertext-based project worked.
