Definition: "Wsunet1," as in "World Wide Net 1," refers to the first Internet portal. It was launched on May 20, 1983, by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, two computer science researchers from Stanford University. This portal enabled anyone with a home IP address or modem to access information on the internet, making it possible for millions of people worldwide to connect. The initial focus was on providing basic web services like email and news reading but expanded rapidly with added features such as chat rooms, forums, video sharing, music streaming, and more. This network eventually evolved into a global network, connecting billions of users from across the globe through its 213 servers spread over 205 countries.
