    Catch of the Day: The Forefather of the World Wide Web! 🏛️🕸️

    Hey Retro Fans!

    Hold your breath and bow in reverence. Today, our FrogFind radar didn't just catch an old browser; it caught the absolute foundation of the modern internet. Between all the Nintendos and dusty Windows PCs, this gigantic milestone appeared:

    NCSA Mosaic 2.7b5 on UNIX (X11)!

    For those who weren't online in the early 90s: Mosaic, developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA), was the first web browser that could display images inline next to text (rather than in a separate window). Starting in 1993, it was the spark that made the World Wide Web appealing to the masses! The Mosaic team later went on to found Netscape, and even Microsoft's first Internet Explorer was based on licensed Mosaic code.

    The fact that today, in 2026, someone boots up a UNIX machine (perhaps an old Sun SPARCstation or an SGI) and navigates our frog pond using the final beta version of NCSA Mosaic (from around 1996) is like operating a working time machine. It proves one thing: True HTML survives decades.

    A reverent cheer to the pioneers of the internet!

  11. #BremenLogbook zeigt ein Logbuch eines berühmten Expeditionsleiters Markus Rex des #AWI (A.Wegener Inst.)
    Es ist die legendäre #MOSAIC Nordpol Expedition auf der #Polarstern von 2019 bis 2021, mitten in der Pandemie. Dieses wertvolle Exemplar kaufte ich für 1€ aus der Bremer Stadtbibliothek. Meine Regale ächzen von meiner Bücher-Sehnsucht. Und einige muss ich noch lesen. Aber das Buch wars wert.😎🥶
