Tim Berners-Lee Enters Blogosphere

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the has-nice-things-to-say-about-it dept.

Saiyine writes "Sir Timothy 'Tim' John Berners-Lee has entered the world of blogging. From his first post: 'In 1989 one of the main objectives of the WWW was to be a space for sharing information. It seemed evident that it should be a space in which anyone could be creative, to which anyone could contribute. The first browser was actually a browser/editor, which allowed one to edit any page, and save it back to the web if one had access rights ... Now in 2005, we have blogs and wikis, and the fact that they are so popular makes me feel I wasn't crazy to think people needed a creative space.'"

    Really. I'm sick of that joke.

    It's interesting because Drupal was written by Howard Dean, who would have won the 2000 election if Bush hadn't stolen it by hacking the Diebold voting machines in Florida to exclude minorities.
