Baku, July 19 (AZERTAC). Google and the Science Museum have teamed up to create Web Lab, a groundbreaking, year-long exhibition, featuring a series of interactive Chrome Experiments that bring the extraordinary workings of the Internet to life and, we hope, inspire the next generation of computer scientists and enthusiasts.

Visitors to the Science Museum will be able to play with five unique experiments. At the same time, online participants will be able to visit www.chromeweblab.com and interact with the same installations in what is a truly global museum exhibit.

Each Web Lab experiment uses a modern web technology to explore a particular idea in computer science. But even if you can`t tell a WebSocket from HTML5 Canvas, Web Lab will demonstrate the power and potential of the Internet to in-museum and online visitors of all ages and backgrounds.

True to Google`s tradition of launching innovative, ambitious ideas and then refining them with user feedback, Wednesday will be Web Lab`s `Beta` launch. But the creative process doesn`t end here. Google and the Science Museum want to hear from all online and in-museum visitors about how the Web Lab experience can be improved further in the coming weeks.

Google`s Steve Vranakis, Creative Director of Web Lab commented:

The internet is incredible. It powers our lives everyday, allows us to explore the globe and lets us communicate with friends the world over. Until now, all this magic has remained locked behind our screens.

Web Lab opens — both in London and online — on Thursday 19th July 2012, and is scheduled to run until Summer 2013. Entry to Web Lab is free.
