In March 1989, British scientist Tim Berners-Lee handed a document titled “Information Management: A Proposal” to his @CERN supervisor, who called it “vague but exciting.” This proposal would eventually lead to the birth of the World Wide Web (WWW).
Thank you, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, for changing the world!

I have been reading This is for everyone by @timbl.
I have taken lots of interesting quotes from the book and I post one or two every couple of weeks.
Now on XML and RDF and on public and open data:

Did you know that Python could have been driving browsers instead of Javascript?

Kommt mir schräg vor, hier zu sagen: „Pack das lieber ins offene Web statt auf eine investorengetriebene, geschlossene Community, die garantiert nicht ‚for everyone‘ ist.“ Also lass ich’s lieber ;) Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Buch – und danke für Deine Arbeit!https://thisisforeveryone.timbl.com/
#OffenesWeb #TimBL #ForEveryoneFeels odd to say: “Put this on the open web instead of some investor-driven gated community that surely isn’t ‘for everyone’.” So I’ll skip that ;) Congrats on the book – and thanks for your work!

On March 12, 1989, Tim Berners-Lee submitted a proposal for an information management system to his boss at CERN. “Vague but exciting” was his feedback. The project later became the World Wide Web.
Thank you, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, for changing the world!

WikiQuote got another quote. Couldn't find your quote there but if you want you can add it! Please also add a source...
"We should work toward a universal linked information system, in which generality and portability are more important than fancy graphics techniques and complex extra facilities. The aim would be to allow a place to be found for any information or reference which one felt was important, and a way of finding it afterwards."
Tim's on Mastodon!

35 years after first proposing the World Wide Web, what does its creator Tim Berners-Lee have in mind next?
"After seeing the balance of power shift to large corporations and big tech companies, the founder of the World Wide Web is determined to give users control over their data again." -- #TimDanton

I want to believe that Solid is the next important step, but Leigh Dodds's recent post on Solid, and particularly the discussion in the post, didn't inspire hope.

Celebrating the 35th birthday of the World Wide Web, a letter by its founder, Tim Berners-Lee.
Discussing some of the issues of the Web of today: too much centralization, too much exploitation, too much disinformation, all made even more dire by the development of AI.

Tim Berners-Lee about the beginning of the #Web, the current work on Web 3.0 aka #Solid (not the blockchain fraud) and his view on #LLM and #ChatGPT

@peterme Not true unless you mean the first to display graphics inline on the page. #TimBL’s original WorldWideWeb on #NeXT was a GUI browser *and* editor, and Mosaic was preceding by Erwise and ViolaWWW.
Along with graphics on the page, the Mosaic team also quickly released Microsoft #Windows and #Mac ports. That’s why it was the first *popular* graphical browser.

Interesting thoughts by Tim Berners-Lee about what things to store in a Pod and how to organize them. #timbl #solid #solidproject #web #personaldata #socialweb

"Berners-Lee ist auch dafür, Datensilos zu öffnen. Der Direktor des World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) setzt dafür aber auf sein eigenes dezentrales Webprojekt Solid. Nutzer sollen mit der Open-Source-Initiative befähigt werden, in jedem Fall selbst zu bestimmen, wo ihre persönlichen Informationen gespeichert werden. Im Idealfall handelt es sich dabei um einen eigenen "Solid-Datenpod", über den der Inhaber die volle Kontrolle hat"

Today 31 years ago, August 6, 1991, Tim Berners-Lee posted to a newsgroup the summary of the "World Wide Web" ♥️
“The project started with the philosophy that much academic information should be freely available to anyone. It aims to allow information sharing within internationally dispersed teams, and the dissemination of information by support groups.”
“Try it,” he wrote, and gave the first URI to a web page.
