World Wide Web Worm (WWWW) One of the first automatic indexing tools for the World-Wide Web, being developed in September 1994 by Oliver McBryan <[email protected]> at the University of Colorado. The worm created a database of 300000 multimedia objects which can be obtained or searched for keywords via the WWW.

In 1994 an early web search engine, the World Wide Web Worm, developed in September 1993 by Oliver McBryan at the University of Colorado at Boulder, had an index of 110,000 pages and web-accessible documents. It received an average of 1500 queries per day.

If you’ll remember back to the chapter episode on the early search engines and Yahoo, I said that it’s hard to pin down exactly what the “first search engine” was. There were so many competing projects and technologies that launched in different ways at different times. One potential candidate is the World Wide Web Worm, which is criminally undercovered by the histories out there. The World Wide Web Worm was developed by Oliver McBryan, at the University of Colorado at Boulder in late 1993. It grew out of an early directory site for web content that McBryan also launched, a sort of Yahoo before Yahoo.
