How did I double post? That's weird, I thought I only hit the reply once? hmmmm, sorry.

The Internet and the World-Wide Web are two different things. The Internet as we know it is about 23 years old. :)

actually, it's older than that :eek: the Internet was a (u.s. department of) defense project begun in 1969 but kept on the DL for many years. so, it's really 37 years old. the World-Wide Web, on the other hand, is probably what this BBC article is referring to.
