My edits probably need to be improved but I really think that the earlier history of sockets is important. Web Sockets is a protocol that builds on sockets (right?) and the networking protocols that the WorldWideWeb program used that have existed for a much longer time. I think there are other inconsistencies in this article that need reconciliation.

| In 1989, while working at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) as a software engineer, Tim Berners-Lee became frustrated with how difficult it was to access information stored on different computers (and, on top of that, running different types of software). This prompted Berners-Lee to develop a project called “WorldWideWeb”. | |||

| The project proposed a “web” of hypertext documents, which could be viewed by browsers over the internet using a client-server architecture. The web had the potential to connect the world in a way that was not previously possible, and made it much easier for people everywhere to get information, share, and communicate. Initially used at CERN, the web was soon made available to the world, with the first websites for everyday use starting to appear in 1993-1994. | |||
