Etymology

The word 'hosted' is derived from the verb 'host', which has its origins in the Latin word 'hospes', meaning 'guest' or 'host'. The connection between guests and hosts can be traced back to ancient times when hospitality was an essential social practice. Over time, the term evolved, particularly in the Middle Ages with the rise of inns and taverns, where hosts provided food and shelter to travelers. With the advent of the internet and digital technology in the late 20th century, 'hosting' gained a new meaning, referring to the provision of online resources and services. This modern usage reflects the continuing theme of facilitating connections, this time in a digital sense.
