Check out the Internet Starting Points Homepage (available from the
Navigation menu in Mosaic) It provides info on the Web project, key plays,
etc. That should be a good starting point for you.

Surf around some within the Web home pages. I remember seeing a graph
somewhere that illustrated the exponetial growth of the WWW, but I'm not
sure exactly where it is.

Good luck! ?8^)
