Created in 1990 by Tim Berners- Lee, the web quickly became the most used hypertext system in the world, and most browsers default to indicating hyperlinks with an underline. To answer the question of why the underline was chosen over competing demarcation techniques, the thesis applies the methods of history of technology and sociology of technology. Before the invention of the web, the underline–also known as the vinculum–was used in many contexts in writing systems; collecting entities together to form a whole and ascribing additional meaning to the content.

  • Why Websites Can Change Without Warning
    Why Websites Can Change Without Warning WHY WOULD MY WEBSITE LOOK DIFFERENT WITHOUT NOTICE? HISTORY: Your website is a series of files & databases. Websites used to be “static” because ​ there were only a few ways to view them. Now we have a complex system, and telling your webmaster what device, operating system and browser is crucial, here’s why: TERMINOLOGY: You have a desktop or mobile “device”. Desktop computers and mobile ​ ​ ​ devices have “operating systems” which are software. To see your website, you’ll pull up a ​ ​ ​ ​ “browser” which is also software, to surf the Internet. Your website is a series of files that ​ ​ needs to be 100% compatible with all devices, operating systems and browsers. Your website is built on WordPress and gets a weekly check up (sometimes more often) to ​ ​ ​ see if any changes have occured. Your site could also be attacked with bad files, links, spam, comments and other annoying internet pests! Or other components will suddenly need updating which is nothing out of the ordinary. WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE IF SOMETHING HAS CHANGED? Any update to the following can make your website look differently: There are 85 operating ​ systems (OS) that can update (without warning). And any of the most popular roughly 7 ​ ​ ​ browsers also update regularly which can affect your site visually and other ways. (Lists below) ​ Now, with an OS or browser update, your site’s 18 website components likely will need ​ ​ updating too. Once website updates are implemented, there are currently about 21 mobile ​ devices, and 141 desktop devices that need to be viewed for compatibility.

My wife, Rachel Finkelstein, has been steadfast throughout all of this, not least of which in the birth of our daughter, but also in her endless encouragement of my scholarship. All three of my readers, Cary Levine, Victoria Rovine, and Christoph Brachmann, deserve thanks for reading through several drafts and providing invaluable feedback. Cary has also admirably served as my advisor throughout the Art History degree program as well as a member of my dissertation committee. At times when it seemed difficult, if not impossible, to complete everything for both degrees, Cary calmly assured me that I could achieve these goals. Leading the spring 2019 thesis writing seminar, Dr. Rovine helped our whole cohort through to the successful completion of our theses, providing detailed and thoughtful comments on every draft. I also deeply appreciate the support from my peers in the course.

Bianco ([email protected]) 9/5/94 Abstract On January 14, 1993, NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) made approximately 130formal, "unclassified, unlimited" technical reports available via the anonymous FTP Langley Technical Report Server (LTRS). LaRC was the first organization to provide a significant number of aero- space technical reports for open electronic dissemination. LTRS has been successful in its first 18 months of operation, with over 11,000 reports distributed and has helped lay the foundation for electronic document distribution for NASA. The availability of World Wide Web (WWW) technol- ogy has revolutionized the lnternet-based information community. This paper describes the tran- sition of LTRS from a centralized FTP site to a distributed data model using the _ and suggests how the general model for LTRS can be applied to other

Web browsers (Mosaic, Netscape, Cello, WinWeb, etc.) read files treated in HyperText Mark-up Language (HTML) and display interactive pages to users. Teachers with computer-mediated classrooms or labs can use HTML and Web browsers to create multimedia presentations for their classes. Files required for HTML, including text, graphics, and other multimedia, are discussed. The process involves using text files to create HIM. documents containing coding-embedded HTML commands. HTML commands are the language used to mark up text to make it interactive and "pretty." The most common HTML codes ("tags") for making text pretty are listed and defined. Additional codes are defined which are needed to turn the text into an interactive, multimedia experience.

  • The Making of Netscape
    The Making of Netscape This case was written by Professor Rajeev Kohli, Graduate School of Business, Columbia University, for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation. 1 The Making of Netscape Marc Andreessen started working on the Mosaic web browser in 1992. He was a computer science student at the University of Illinois, but he spent a lot more time at the NCSA, the University’s supercomputing center, than he did in the classroom. “Working at NCSA was fascinating,” says Andreessen. “The super-computing program in the mid-1980's originated because the government thought it was crucial that a powerful computing infrastructure be provided for scientists. An interesting thing happened around 1990: all the supercomputing centers essentially stopped running supercomputers. They shut down the Crays. They could no longer afford to keep them running, especially with the advent of more cost efficient microprocessors. Since it no longer made sense to run a supercomputer, what do you do? And so networking quickly became a very big part of NCSA, the theory being that the next stage would be to link together everything -- especially scientists and educators who up until that point had been using the Crays. Networking had arrived so fast, and everything was happening so rapidly, that people just hadn't yet gotten around to making it accessible.” The Internet phenomenon had been gaining momentum for a decade, but its use was still limited to a small group of skilled programmers. “People had also been talking about hypertext for a long time, and it finally happened at NCSA,” says Andreessen.
