Memories of Netscape Navigator and Web 1.0
Today, the revolutionary Netscape Navigator browser was named the Top Tech Product of All-Time by PC World Magazine.
I remember spending much time in the Millersville University weather lab back in 1994, using Netscape’s new-fangled “web browser” on the Sun terminal, checking out ESPNet Sportszone (now ESPN.com) stats and scores, and anything else “Web 1.0” that I could find. Oh, and looking at weather maps and radar too sometimes.
Now I scour the Web all day looking for news, sports information, tech news and gadgets. and listen to podcasts while bringing the best news to you.
Wow, I’ve come so far. 🙂
Other notables from the list include Apple, which had seven devices/computers in the Top 50. Get the complete list here. Here’s my favorites on the list:
