I remember being underwhelmed by the www before the graphical browser. Gopher I felt was superior. I would read about the graphical web browser in magazines but it required a slip Connection which may not have existed at this point.

One day I read about a guy in brooklyn who had a website at www.soundtube.com and was selling music on the internet . I got in touch and went to his office in brooklyn to look at his website in a graphical browser. I than followed his lead in getting setup.

The logo for the site was a half squeezed tube of toothpaste with the word sound tube on it.

I don’t remember his delivery mechanism. The last time I visited the site it was the same logo but with the subtext that “what could have been”.

I occasionally look for more information about sound tube.

Seems to be lost but I hope it is only missing.

Someone else told me they thought lynx came first. Is that really true? I thought images were there from the beginning.

Lynx wasn't first, but images weren't there from the beginning either. At least, not inline images.

That’s right. Tim Berbers-Lee mentions that here https://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/WorldWideWeb.html
