American History 1988

``` Debt, economic decline, immigration; hippies, anti-government, freedom. At the end of the 1980s, a wave of change encompassed a country boy from the Rust Belt. As the gate for upward mobility was on the verge of closing, he struggled to move forward. College, Silicon Valley, entrepreneurship; HP, Apple, Microsoft. To become part of the 1%, or even 0.1%, he sacrificed a lot, but also gained a lot. ```

Chapter 289 Mosaic

Ever since the birth of the browser, many technically skilled researchers had made slight improvements to Berners-Lee's creation.

They were familiar with programming within the Unix system and began to optimize World Wide Web browsers according to personal preferences.

Consequently, a variant browser would be born and then distributed on shared BBS for other internet enthusiasts to use.

Among these early disseminators, these quirky browsers were further modified.

From '91 to '93, browsers gradually started spreading to mainstream universities or research institutions in America.

A team from the University of Illinois noticed this software, which could open a window to the internet.

Their office was located at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, or NCSA.

This organization was indeed related to the National Science Foundation (NSF), receiving considerable budget support from the latter.
