The Internet is becoming the town square for the global village of tomorrow.
The Internet is just a world passing around notes in a classroom.
Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.
The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect - to help people work together - and not as a technical toy.
The Internet has been the most fundamental change during my lifetime and for hundreds of years.
Science fiction does not remain fiction for long. And certainly not on the Internet.
The technological breakthrough of the World Wide Web has been enormously beneficial to society.
The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect - to help people work together - and not as a technical toy. The ultimate goal of the Web is to support and improve our weblike existence in the world. We clump into families, associations, and companies. We develop trust across the miles and distrust around the corner.
The Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had.
Nowadays, anyone who cannot speak English and is incapable of using the Internet is regarded as backward.
I believe that the World Wide Web is, as a matter of fact, the noogenesis of the noosphere of the future. This is it!
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.
By placing intelligence at the edges rather than control in the middle of the network, the Internet has created a platform for innovation.
The World Wide Web is the only thing I know of whose shortened form takes three times longer to say than what it's short for.
During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet.
Getting an education at MIT is like taking a drink from a fire hose.
I have an almost religious zeal... not for technology per se, but for the Internet which is for me, the nervous system of mother Earth, which I see as a living creature, linking up.
Good telling of human stories is the best way to keep the Internet and World Wide Web from becoming a waste vastland.
Spending an evening on the World Wide Web is much like sitting down to a dinner of Cheetos, two hours later your fingers are yellow and you're no longer hungry, but you haven't been nourished.
If you use the original World Wide Web program, you never see a URL or have to deal with HTML. That was a surprise to me - that people were prepared to painstakingly write HTML.
The world wide web has really been quite spectacular and not something I would have predicted.
I'm not a politician, and I do not think I am as effective in this way as people who actually prepare for it - is to focus on technical reform, because I speak the language of technology. I spoke with Tim Berners-Lee, the guy who invented the World Wide Web. We agree on the necessity for this generation to create what he calls the Magna Carta for the Internet. We want to say what "digital rights" should be. What values should we be protecting, and how do we assert them.
It's not the world wide web. It's the women wide web.
Coffee has assumed a social meaning that goes far beyond the simple black brew in the cup. The worldwide coffee culture is more than a culture - it is a cult. There are usenet newsgroups on the subject, along with innumerable sites on the World Wide Web, and Starbucks outlets populate every street corner, vying for space with other coffeehouses and chains. And after all is said and done, it's just the pit of a berry from an Ethiopian shrub.
I don't mind being, in the public context, referred to as the inventor of the World Wide Web. What I like is that image to be separate from private life, because celebrity damages private life.
