Les Horribles Cernettes was the first to do what?

Lynn Véronneau is 1 of 4 women in the personal photograph, as shown, to be published on the internet in 1992.

It was July 18, 1992, and the Les Horribles Cernettes was about to perform their doo-wop songs about high-energy physics on a stage in Switzerland when their manager decided to snap a spontaneous picture.

The four women, Angela Higney, Michele de Gennaro, Colette Marx-Neilsen, and Lynn Veronneau, were playing as part of the Hardronic Festival, an annual event put on at their workplace, the European Organization for Nuclear Research — better known as CERN.

"We were just getting ready to go on stage and, he, said, 'OK, ladies, strike a pose!'" said Lynn Véronneau, who's originally from Sherbrooke, Quebec, but was working as a research administrator for Yale University at the time.

They had no idea the still would become what many say is the first personal photograph to be uploaded to the World Wide Web and that, "by its inventor himself, Tim Berners-Lee", she said.
