How To Write A Congratulatory Speech

20 years Web: What's next?

Twenty years ago Tim Berners-Lee filed as an employee of the Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN) to his superiors a proposal for a computer system that the targeted access would facilitate the many researchers Approximate results of the CERN by It linked this site via links to each other. That moment is now regarded as the birth of the World Wide Web. In addition to the basic idea of such a network and the development of language (HTML), the Protocol (HTTP) and URIs (URLs today) is mainly the co-founder and co the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) as his most important contribution to success of the WWW to see.
If I did realize at some point that I made up with his early thirties, the system, which now takes place the bulk of the business and an increasing part of social life, I would a Greek island (or a bay or at least a house, allegedly Berners-Lee has financially benefited from his performance never especially) now and in the knowledge that nothing can get considerably more, olive blinking, chewing into the sunset. Precisely because of this setting, but I will probably never make appropriate inventions. And designed Berners-Lee still great ideas, especially to what might follow on the Web as we know it and presented them here and there, for example on a TED Conference . Less specific than twenty years ago, a little less convincing, but still very interesting and entertaining.
