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
Data is a precious thing and will last longer than the systems themselves.
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
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
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
I suppose it's amazing when you think how many things people get involved in that don't work.
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
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
The dream behind the Web is of a common information space in which we communicate by sharing information.
Tim Berners-Lee
When you understand things, there's no more magic.
Tim Berners-Lee
I have built a moat around myself, along with ways over that moat so that people can ask questions.
Tim Berners-Lee
The story of the growth of the World Wide Web can be measured by the number of Web pages that are published and the number of links between pages. The Web's ability to allow people to forge links is why we refer to it as an abstract information space, rather than simply a network.
Tim Berners-Lee
We shouldn't build a technology to colour, or grey out, what people say. The media in general is balanced, although there are a lot of issues to be addressed that the media rightly pick up on.
Tim Berners-Lee
E-mail is interesting. We can't live with it, and you can't live without it.
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
The concept of the Web is of universal readership.
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
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
If you are not on the web, you will have problems accessing services.
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.
