The World Wide Web

This is a video of Sir Tim Berners-Lee at a conference in the Hilton at Kuala Lumpur, discussing the advent and instant popularity of the World Wide Web.  It appears this video was taken in 2007, but it refers back to Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s inventing of the WWW in 1989.

I don’t believe it is necessary to explain why the World Wide Web is important to the world as we know it.  The WWW made information universally accessible, allowed information sharing, and created an eventual expansion of communication.
