This is to announce the


   First International Conference on the World-Wide Web
   ====================================================

                   May 25-26-27, 1994
                      CERN, Geneva
                       Switzerland

The World-Wide Web is currently the most interesting and powerful
information system on the Internet. It combines the ease of use of
hypertext graphic user interfaces with the large sets of information
on the Internet available through its native protocol as well as many
other protocols (Gopher, ftp, nntp, ...)

The Conference will include tutorials, topical workshops, panels,
presentations of formal papers on WWW technology and theory,
user and provider experiences, and a series of special sessions for
delegates from business and non-academic organisations.

This Conference will be prepared entirely through the World-Wide Web itself.
For all information details:
