I can't see anything on the linked page to suggest that the web was "born" 30 years ago today (i.e. 20 December 1990). On the contrary, it says it was invented in 1989.

Wikipedia[1] lists the official release date of the first web browser, WorldWideWeb, as 25 December 1990. Tim Berners-Lee has said that the first version was "whimsically dated 901225 although I was NOT working on Christmas Day—it was prepared some time before closed for Christmas"[2] - so maybe that works out to 30 years ago today?

I found this document https://web.archive.org/web/20130605043221/https://timeline....

It says "The world’s first website and server go live at CERN" on 1990年12月20日

muyuu
it's weird that this page is not public anymore

the history page here https://timeline.web.cern.ch/timelines/The-birth-of-the-Worl... doesn't list this date - does list the availability of the browser in xmas day

CERN celebrated the 30th anniversary on 2019年03月12日 https://home.cern/events/web30, but I do agree that celebrating the day the first (public) web server went up is a bit more symbolic than the day the proposal was submitted.
