Origin of the Name
Cookie is the English word for a small baked treat. It originates from the Anglo-Saxon custom of offering a cookie to visitors to create a pleasant atmosphere quickly. The name and concept of the cookie were invented in 1994 by Lou Montulli, a brilliant programmer for the now-defunct Netscape browser, which influenced the modern internet in many other ways (for example, Montulli invented the animated GIF).
