E-mail is interesting. We can't live with it, and you can't live without it.
Tim Berners-Lee
The Google algorithm was a significant development. I've had thank-you emails from people whose lives have been saved by information on a medical website or who have found the love of their life on a dating website.
Tim Berners-Lee
The most important thing that was new was the idea of URI-or URL, that any piece of information anywhere should have an identifier, which will allow you to get hold of it.
Tim Berners-Lee
Software companies should take more responsibility for security holes, especially in browsers and e-mail clients. There are some straightforward things the industry should be doing right now to fix things, and I don't know why they haven't been done yet.
Tim Berners-Lee

Tim Berners-Lee

Tim Berners-Lee

Tim Berners-Lee
When you understand things, there's no more magic.
Tim Berners-Lee
If you are not on the web, you will have problems accessing services.
Tim Berners-Lee
Any enterprise CEO really ought to be able to ask a question that involves connecting data across the organization, be able to run a company effectively, and especially to be able to respond to unexpected events. Most organizations are missing this ability to connect all the data together.
Tim Berners-Lee
The goal of the Web is to serve humanity. We build it now so that those who come to it later will be able to create things that we cannot ourselves imagine.
Tim Berners-Lee
The Web does not just connect machines, it connects people.
Tim Berners-Lee
It's a new medium, it's a universal medium and it's not itself a medium which inherently makes people do good things, or bad things. It allows people to do what they want to do more efficiently.
Tim Berners-Lee
Universality has been the key enabler of innovation on the Web and will continue to be so in the future.
Tim Berners-Lee
The dream behind the Web is of a common information space in which we communicate by sharing information.
Tim Berners-Lee
When it comes to professionalism, it makes sense to talk about being professional in IT. Standards are vital so that IT professionals can provide systems that last.
Tim Berners-Lee
I think IT projects are about supporting social systems - about communications between people and machines. They tend to fail due to cultural issues.
Tim Berners-Lee
That idea of URL was the basic clue to the universality of the Web. That was the only thing I insisted upon.
Tim Berners-Lee
