Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the World Wide Web, has started a blog. He built the first web browser and editor, called WorldWideWeb and the first Web server simply called httpd. The first Web site - http://info.cern.ch/ - was also built by Berners-Lee and was first put online on August 6, 1991. Berner-Lee says in his first blog entry he found it strange what the World Wide Web became popular as a "publishing medium." Berners-Lee says the popularity of blogs makes him feel that he wasn't off base in thinking that people needed a creative space. The first post received 455 comments before they had to switch user commenting off. timbl's blog |
