A Netscape embroidered dad cap hat brings a low-key web-history reference to daily wear. The name recalls the 1994 startup that became synonymous with Navigator, a browser central to the rise of consumer internet use and the browser wars. Wear it on campus, at a meetup, during a commute, or while revisiting the web's formative years. It is a relaxed collector piece for developers, startup historians, and longtime internet users who appreciate Netscape's connection to Mozilla and open source.
Netscape Communications Corporation began as Mosaic Communications Corporation on April 4, 1994. Founded by Jim Clark and Marc Andreessen, it was first headquartered in Mountain View, California, before later operating from Dulles, Virginia. Its Mosaic Netscape 0.9 browser arrived on October 13, 1994 and was renamed Netscape Navigator after the company adopted the Netscape name that November. Navigator quickly became a leading browser of the early web. Netscape went public on NASDAQ as NSCP on August 9, 1995. Competition with Microsoft Internet Explorer defined the first browser war. In January 1998, Netscape made future software free and launched the open-source Mozilla project; the Mozilla Organization later became the independent Mozilla Foundation in July 2003. AOL announced its acquisition of Netscape in November 1998, closing in March 1999. Netscape also made browser, server, e-commerce, portal, and Internet products. AOL ended Navigator development and support in 2008.
