"Monumental Websites" - A Hmmm Squad Lecture

​Hmmm Squad is Shrewsbury's premier science and philosophy discussion group. The group meets on the last Thursday evening of each month at the UCS premises in the Guildhall, Frankwell. Each month a member of the group gives a science or philosophy-themed presentation and invites a short discussion. Hmmm Squad is a completely free event.

On Thursday August 25th at 7.30pm, I will be presenting a lecture that I originally gave back in 2009, when working on the cruise ships. Having spent my formative years foraging the internet before the dawn of the world wide web, I have taken particular interest in the most influential websites that have propelled the internet into popular usage. In this talk, you’ll be taken on a trivia tour of the tourist landmarks of the web, you’ll hear a few words of wisdom from our creator and you’ll be told the secret of how to become a ‘dot com’ millionaire.

I hope to see you there.
