What Top 10 Popular Nigerian News Websites Look Like Back in the Day
By Rasheed Sobowale
Emerging from the depths of scientific collaboration, the World Wide Web unfolded as a captivating narrative of innovation and serendipitous discovery.
Its genesis can be traced back to 1989, when Sir Tim Berners-Lee, a physicist at CERN, the esteemed European Organization for Nuclear Research, envisioned a system to facilitate seamless information exchange among researchers.
This groundbreaking concept, christened the World Wide Web, harnessed the power of hypertext, an ingenious mechanism that empowered users to effortlessly traverse through a vast tapestry of interconnected documents.
The web quickly gained popularity among scientists and researchers, and by the early 1990s, it was starting to be used by businesses and the general public.
By 2010, the number of web users reached over 2 billion. Today, there are over 5 billion internet users worldwide, which amounts to 65.7 per cent of the global population.
As a reminder that most web interfaces we enjoy today were not like that years ago, we have compiled how some top Nigeria news websites look back in the day and how they look today.
