Excerpt: Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s open letter to mark the occasion of the Web’s 35th Birthday.

Notes: This is a quite interesting letter, advocating the creation of a privately owned data store for every user of the web. It’s a grand vision coming from somebody who has huge influence. that someone is Tim Berners-Lee, the so-called inventor of the World Wide Web. By the way he used the NeXT computer to create the original prototype, which is a pretty interesting historical note.
