Which was the first website in the world?

Did you know that CERN was the first to create a website back in 1991, as well as made the WWW technology available on a royalty-free basis in 1993?

The website back then had only text  explaining some of the basics of the World Wide Web and it was originally available at this address —http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html — but for many years that URL has been redirecting to http://info.cern.ch.

Recently, CERN found a copy of the 1992 site and put it back online at its original address, which you can visit here, while employees of CERN are still trying to find even earlier copies.
