These search engines were created through web design. Web design has helped us get to where we are today in terms of technology and economics. The World Wide Web was created in the early 1980s at CERN, a physics laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. Tim Berners-Lee, a man who worked at CERN, originally wanted to find better ways to circulate scientific papers and other data electronically within the physics research community around the world. After some time, he finally developed the code for a hypertext server program and made it available on the Internet. The code used was HTML (Hypertext Markup Language). Although the first browser was only useful for viewing text documents, we are now able to read these HTML documents and display graphics and other platforms as well using today's web browsers such as Netscape Navigator.
