Tim Berners-Lee

Named by Time magazine as one of the 100 greatest minds of the 20th century, Tim Berners-Lee comes to the Smithsonian to tell the story of his fabulous and revolutionary creation.

Mr. Berners-Lee’s personal vision has inspired the World Wide Web’s development as a powerful technological force for social change and individual creativity. He offers his criticism of its current state and tells how organizations and individuals can get more out of it. In the process, he considers such current issues as patents, intellectual property rights, parental control of children’s access, and ways to make the Web a more creative place, and he also addresses the boundless future of his mind-boggling invention.

Mr. Berners-Lee is now the director of the MIT-based World Wide Web Consortium. His book Weaving the Web (HarperSanFrancisco) is available for purchase.

This program was recorded Oct. 14, 1999 at The Smithsonian Institution
