Who killed the World Wide Web?

>The WorldWideWeb (W3) is a wide-area hypermedia information retrieval initiative aiming to give universal access to a large universe of documents.

How different it is today...

What went wrong?

How did the web turn from universal access to information to selective access to entertainment?

Web 2.0

Yeah, but that by itself shouldn't consume the entire web to such an extent.

Surely personal resistance should have played some part, in that people used to make their own sites all by themselves using just HTML. So why would they over complicate it so much for themselves?

>How did the web turn from universal access to information to selective access to entertainment?

did it though? it may be true for the few hundred popular websites people visit regularly, but does it also apply to the millions of other websites that exist out there?

Netscape (and by extension firefox) did ruin the modern web.

Also mosaic is a meme, nobody was using that shit.

Read history of violawww - it had client side scripting, ajax, css in fucking 1993. It failed because the author wasn't interested in doing a windows port.

Later netscape made a really poor clone of it with which were pretty much stuck to this day.
