| | 8 | 25 years ago—On the 6'th of August 1991—the world's first website went live, |
| | 9 | and it's [still there](http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html). |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | In other words, the world wide web is celebrating silver jubilee today. |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | Imagine where we would've been without it. Would your project exist? Would |
| | 14 | freenode exist? |
| | 15 | |
| | 16 | On behalf of freenode, I'd like to give all our sponsors a big shoutout, for |
| | 17 | making freenode possible—read more about who they are on our [acknowledgements |
| | 18 | page](https://freenode.net/acknowledgements). |
| | 19 | |
| | 20 | And lastly we would like to thank you, the people that use freenode, the people |
| | 21 | who use freenode for your projects, the people that contribute to keeping the |
| | 22 | internet full of Free and Open Source Software. You are a part of what took the |
| | 23 | internet this far and a part of what keep it, and a lot of other tech related |
| | 24 | things, evolving. |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | Stay with us, it's freenode's porcelain jubilee this year, keep chatting, keep |
| | 27 | the internet open. |
