Interview with Sun's Tim Bray and Radia Perlman

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the thats-a-bit-old-school dept.

ReadWriteWeb writes "To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the World Wide Web, Richard MacManus interviewed two senior engineers from Sun Microsystems - Tim Bray (Director of Web Technologies) and Radia Perlman (Distinguished Engineer). The interview discusses the past and future of the Web, including the impact that Sun's servers have had over the years. Also discussed is the reason why Tim and Radia believe that P2P won't be a driving force on the Web going forward. Radia thinks that having central sites where people can register is key to making the Web scalable and more secure."

    I think the interview would have been better if they had spoken with Ron Perlman instead of Radia Perlman.
