'ello!

Happy Internet Day

LO were the first two letters transmitted over the beginnings of the internet

So it all came to pass when computer wizards tried to send the first command line between The University of California and Stanford Research Institute… that command was the word, ‘LOGIN’! However, the transmission was received in part showing the first two letters only. Some took this to be an epiphany from the old English word ‘Lo’ (to look) as in, lo and behold …we, however, prefer our version based on the British greeting as, ‘ello or that classic catchphrase, ‘ello, ‘ello, 'ello...??? Quite apt really, considering we are still getting to grips with this technological revolution.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee founded the hypertext language, which when integrated with the internet would become the cornerstone of what we all know to be the World Wide Web today.

Like it or loathe it, this invention has turned the vastness of our planet into a village! While you marvel at the technical intricacies of the first ever web page , remember that all great things begin by looking really simple.

We feel compelled to celebrate this day with our followers, otherwise how else would you know about our funky selves??? 😎👊🏽
