| − | Whilst working at [[CERN]] (a [[particle physics]] laboratory in [[Switzerland]]) in 1990, Berners-Lee came up with the idea of using the [[Internet]] to link [[hypertext]] documents. He designed the first web browser and web server, and in 1991 CERN created the world's first website. Berners-Lee has remained an active participant in World Wide Web development ever since. He now lives in the [[United States]] and is the Director of the World Wide Web Consortium.

| − | ''And if there ever was a thing that was made by committee, the Internet — with its protocols and packet switching — is it. But the World Wide Web is Berners-Lee's alone. He designed it. He loosed it on the world. And he more than anyone else has fought to keep it open, nonproprietary and free.'' [http://www.time.com/time/time100/scientist/profile/bernerslee.html]
