Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee (born 1955) is a British physicist and computer scientist. [221] In 1980, while working at CERN, he proposed a project using hypertext to facilitate sharing and updating information among researchers. [222] While there, he built a prototype system named ENQUIRE. [223]
Berners-Lee receives the Freedom of the City of London, at the Guildhall, in 2014. Sir Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee, OM, KBE, FRS, FREng, FRSA, DFBCS (born 8 June 1955), also known as "TimBL", the inventor of the World Wide Web, has received a number of awards and honours.
ENQUIRE was a software project written in 1980 by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN, [2] which was the predecessor to the World Wide Web. [2] [3] [4] It was a simple hypertext program [4] that had some of the same ideas as the Web and the Semantic Web but was different in several important ways.

Robert Cailliau (last name pronunciation: [kajo], born 26 January 1947) is a Belgian informatics engineer who proposed the first (pre-www) hypertext system for CERN in 1987 [1] and collaborated with Tim Berners-Lee on the World Wide Web (jointly winning the ACM Software System Award) from before it got its name.
A former Playboy model killed herself and her 7-year-old son after jumping from a hotel in Midtown New York City on Friday morning. The New York Post reports that 47-year-old Stephanie Adams ...
Tim Berners-Lee drew what he called the "metro": a diagram of the relationships between the existing systems (FTP, SMTP, HTTP, ...) in the form of a stylised map resembling that of the London Underground. That made me think that we needed to deal with a lot more hard computer science than our small team of four or five could intellectually handle.
