February 26 1991 WorldWideWeb, the world’s first web browser and WYSIWYG HTML editor, was introduced by British computer programmer Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web. Berners-Lee had come up with the idea in 1989, and the the Web first became publicly available in August 1991, but the February date marks the first successful server/browser combination using the http protocol. WorldWideWeb was later renamed Nexus to avoid confusion with the World Wide Web.
