Extremely cool piece of web history
This is pretty cool: a phenomenal piece of the history of the web. On February 25, 1993, Marc Andreesen, then still merely a part of the software development group at the National Center for Superconducting Applications, posted this message on the WWW-talk chat group proposing a "new optional HTML tag: IMG". Yup, here it is - the introduction of that which would truly set the web apart from Gopher and the other applications of the internet.
(Oh, and can I just say that I was also shocked when I looked up Andreesen on Wikipedia for the link above and discovered that he's only just over two months older than me?)
