From Various Sources - Tim Berners Lee has a Blog. He becomes the latest in the list of celebrity/legend to grace the blogosphere. He writes that his blog is at DIG, the Decentralised Information group at MIT's CSAIL and adds that he intends it to be geeky semantic web stuff mostly. The blog won't be for W3C questions which should really be addressed to working groups. No wonder his blog receives amazing number of comments. At CERN in 1980,Berners-Lee proposed a project based on the concept of hypertext, to facilitate sharing and updating information among researchers. With help from Robert Cailliau he built a prototype system named Enquire. In a decade, CERN was the largest Internet node in Europe, and Berners-Lee saw an opportunity to marry hypertext and Internet. He used similar ideas to those underlying the Enquire system to create the World Wide Web, for which he designed and built the first web browser and editor (called WorldWideWeb and developed on NeXTSTEP) and the first Web server simply called httpd (which was short for HyperText Transfer Protocol daemon). Currently, Tim Berners Lee is working on the Semantic web filled in with with interesting possibilities
