A nice book for browsing – 100 chapters of inventions that “changed the web.” Some are unexpected and fascinating – the Mundamen, The Blair Witch Project, Xanadu, Drudge – and others are obvious: markup languages, Apache, micro-blogging, etc.
Each chapter is a 1-2 minute read. I read them five at a time for a couple weeks. Each chapter has some good history around the given topic. There was lots of stuff I didn’t know.
Not very deep, but it doesn’t claim to be. A fun read.
