inside my headd on weaving the web....

When I started reading weaving the web I didn’t really understand it. I was confused on who actually created and thought of creating the web. I was also confused on who created the first computer. As I kept reading I slowly started to understand. It seems as if creating the web took a lot of thinking and planning out, but as it developed over the years it was well worth it. In the back of my head I’m thinking berners-lee’s father really helped him to create the web also. If it wasn’t for him and his father having this conversation (“…I found my father working on a speech for Basil de Ferranti. He was reading books on the brain, looking for clues about how to make a computer intuitive, able to complete connections as the brain did. We discussed the point ;…”) it would have never been a thought in his head. I appreciate berners-Lee, and his colleagues creating the World Wide Web, because without it I wouldn’t be able to connect with my family and friends that doesn’t live around me.

  1. I am often confused - because these HUGE technological advances happen because ONE person has this idea...and that idea changes the lives of all 6 billion of us on the planet! It's inconceivable that only one person can change the lives of everyone :)

  3. :) uhhh YEAH! I was extra confused at first. But like you said, as i started to read it more I understood like what he was trying to get out. Witch was that creating the Web was just something that happened with him. I feel like he’s extra chill about it. If I were him I would STILL be bugging out about creating the Web.

  4. Wow! Looks like it's not only me that not understand what exactly is the book "Weaving the Web" talking about. At first, I didn't even want to read it cause its too long, confusing,but as I do through it,I start to like it and appreciate what Tim and his father did for me. So, good summary!
