WWW Founder Tim Berners-Lee’s blog :
Glad to see the father of the Internet upgrading himself to the simple blogging system
Strangely enough, the web took off very much as a publishing medium, in which people edited offline. Bizarely, they were prepared to edit the funny angle brackets of HTML source, and didn’t demand a what you see is what you get editor. WWW was soon full of lots of interesting stuff, but not a space for communal design, for discource through communal authorship.
