It's not the world wide web. It's the women wide web.

Tiffany Shlain

I will fully engage myself to maintain CERN's excellence in all its attributes, with the help of everybody, including CERN Council, staff and users from all over the world.

Fabiola Gianotti

If someone had protected the HTML language for making Web pages, then we wouldn't have the World Wide Web.

Feng Zhang

Geneva has a long history of hosting international organizations, which is part of the reason why CERN is here. CERN has signed agreements with the ITU, WIPO and the WMO. At first sight, there may not seem to be much common ground between CERN and, say, the World Meteorological Organization, but scratch the surface, and you'll soon find a common thread. All of these organizations have a vocation to stimulate technological innovation, and together we're stronger.

Rolf-Dieter Heuer

When people talk about Web 2.0, they mean that when the Internet, the World Wide Web, first became popular, it was one way only.

Edward Snowden

I fundamentally do not believe in the patenting of software. It would be like Shakespeare patenting the tragic love story.

Shiva Ayyadurai

This is exactly how the World Wide Web works: the HTML files are the pithy description on the paper tape, and your Web browser is Ronald Reagan.

Neal Stephenson

The World Wide Web went from zero to millions of web pages in a few years. Many revolutions look irrelevant just before they change everything swiftly.

George M. Church

When I was 14, I spent a huge amount of time on the Internet, but not the Internet we know today. It was 1994, so while the World Wide Web existed, it wasn't generally accessible. Prodigy and CompuServe were popular, and AOL was on the rise, but I didn't have access to the web, and no one I knew had access to the web.

Robin Sloan

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.

Tim Berners-Lee

What we now call the browser is whatever defines the web. What fits in the browser is the World Wide Web and a number of trivial standards to handle that so that the content comes.

Ted Nelson

Berners-Lee started the World Wide Web as a set of protocols for transferring, linking and addressing documents to send over the Net. Without the global reach and open technical standards of the Internet, the Web could never have proliferated as it did.

Katie Hafner

I read a piece by a guy out in Alberta that said Canadians are lazy because they're not patenting enough new inventions. I disagree. Canadians invent a lot of stuff. Actually patenting them is expensive.

Margaret Atwood

I also saw a huge expansion of the Internet, with many major corporations, afraid of being left behind, spending hundreds of millions of dollars to develop World Wide Web sites in a frantic scramble to reach the vast new consumer market of Web use

Dave Barry

Yahoo is a global technology company that provides personalized products and services, including search, advertising, content, and communications in more than 45 languages in 60 countries. As a pioneer of the World Wide Web, we enjoy some of the longest-lasting customer relationships on the Web.

Alex Stamos

His ambition is to be the spider in the World Wide Web.
