More quotes by 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
In '93 to '94, every browser had its own flavor of HTML. So it was very difficult to know what you could put in a Web page and reliably have most of your readership see it.
Tim Berners-Lee
When you go onto the internet, if you really rummage around randomly then how do you hope to find something of any of value?
Tim Berners-Lee
The concept of the Web is of universal readership.
Tim Berners-Lee
AI is not just heading for our industry, it will radically change the machinery we use in marketing.
Tim Berners-Lee
My own personal preference is that the consumer, the individual person should be protected because individual people and the difference between individual people and the diversity we have between people on the planet is so important.
Tim Berners-Lee
Acceptance is the spiritual hammock.
Tim Berners-Lee
[With AI] Somebody's going to have to think of a completely new algorithm, a new way of doing goal-based planning.
Tim Berners-Lee
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is the Achilles heel of the Web. The important thing is that it's managed responsibly.
Tim Berners-Lee
What I do has to be a function of what I can do, not a function of what people ask me to do.
Tim Berners-Lee
One of the things I like about the computer that I use is that I can write a program on it or I can download a program on to it and run it. That's kind of important to me, and that's also kind of important to the whole future of the internet... obviously a closed platform is a serious brake on innovation.
Tim Berners-Lee
People keep asking me what I think of it now that it's done. Hence my protest: The Web is not done!
Tim Berners-Lee
If different cultures connect with each other, they are less likely to want to shoot each other.
Tim Berners-Lee
I'm an optimist about humanity in general, I suppose.
Tim Berners-Lee
I'm not a fan of giving a website a simple number like an IQ rating because like people they can vary in all kinds of different ways. So I'd be interested in different organisations labelling websites in different ways.
Tim Berners-Lee
Web users ultimately want to get at data quickly and easily. They don't care as much about attractive sites and pretty design.
Tim Berners-Lee
The original idea of the web was that it should be a collaborative space where you can communicate through sharing information.
Tim Berners-Lee
Now, if someone tries to monopolize the Web, for example pushes proprietary variations on network protocols, then that would make me unhappy.
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
Technology innovation is starting to explode and having open-source material out there really helps this explosion. You get students and researchers involved and you get people coming through and building start ups based on open source products.
