World Wide Web is the stuff that you see when you use a browser. It is documents with Hypertext transported over http
Tim Berners Lee did invent that, as he states in the link you provide: "I just had to take the hypertext idea and connect it to the TCP and DNS ideas and -- ta-da! -- the World Wide Web." As with most great inventions, it was a close call, others could have done the same thing around that time, So, if it is not the question: 'Did you invent the Internet?' What would it be you would like to ask him, now you have the chance? Maybe something about Web 3.0? Just do a suggestion... reinier On Tuesday 11 March 2008 21:10:46 Hari Kurup wrote: > Reinier Battenberg wrote: > > > Tim Berners-Lee.
