A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It’s about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role.
In 1995, I made a website, and half the web came to see it, and I thought, ‘Man, that’s it, that’s what I want to do.’
What Bitcoin started is metamorphosing into something bigger: a ‘crypto-tech’-driven economy with its own value creation, not unlike the Web’s own economy. Welcome to the cryptoconomy.
For the blue-collar worker, the driving force behind change was factory automation using programmable machine tools. For the office worker, it’s office automation using computer technology: enterprise-resource-planning systems, groupware, intranets, extranets, expert systems, the Web, and e-commerce.
Web will have space for comedy just as films and TV.
The Web or card experience is not at all going to replicate the book experience, nor is the book experience going to replicate the Web.

From the radio and the world wide web, to the steam engine and penicillin, for generations the U.K. has been a world-leader in science and research.
The Web is going to capture an increasing share of people’s attention, and billions of dollars are going to flow in. What Web 2.0 is about is harnessing those dollars in highly leverageable ways.
For some students, especially in the sciences, the knowledge gained in college may be directly relevant to graduate study. For almost all students, a liberal arts education works in subtle ways to create a web of knowledge that will illumine problems and enlighten judgment on innumerable occasions in later life.
Before I found out you couldn’t get bitten by a radioactive spider and shoot webs out of your wrist, I wanted to be a superhero when I grew up – until I was, like, 8.
Companies with aspirations to be larger publishers – Kabam, Kixeye, even Zynga – are moving aggressively off the Facebook platform to mobile and the open Web. Publishers aren’t convinced that the costs of being on Facebook are worth it.
I did an early version of my site where it was virtually impossible to get through it, just as a statement about the web. But after a few laughs and some angry e-mails, I realized it wasn’t doing me much good. I think the web has become more about the final product, not what it takes to get to it.
We started to consider what became Amazon Web Services between 2000 and 2003.
It’s the beauty of the Web. You can pretend to be anything you want. But people figure out pretty quick if you don’t live up to it.

If someone had protected the HTML language for making Web pages, then we wouldn’t have the World Wide Web.
Look for when the environment is changing – the big shift now is mobile Internet. It’s really happening big-time. The way you interact with services on a smart phone compared to the Web is quite different, so there’s a huge opportunity.
Nearly all web publications are driven by the display model, which is in turn driven by page views. But we all know the web is shifting, thanks to mobile devices and the walled gardens they erect. The new landscape of the web is far more complicated, and new products must emerge.
Web GIS allows us to take our systems of record – our traditional server and desktop technologies – and integrate them, bringing them together into a system of systems.
When decentralized blockchain protocols start displacing the centralized web services that dominate the current Internet, we’ll start to see real internet-based sovereignty. The future Internet will be decentralized.
The 24/7 nature of online debate, on the web and across social media, has allowed for more vibrant discussion of the opinions we publish – and your own.
My role is to think about what the future could be for Airbnb – and that includes crafting an effortless and easy-to-use service on any platform, whether mobile, tablet, or Web.
StumbleUpon has humanized the Web and mastered a way for people to discover online content by incorporating an individual’s personal preferences and recommendations of friends and like-minded people.
Now, not every blog post or ‘Top 10 Ways to Make Money on the Internet’ piece deserves to live forever. But there’s gold among the dross, and there are web publications that we would do well to preserve for historical purposes.
All the dialogue on tape, and we’d play the tape in performance. Then I thought it’d be interesting if the actor’s repeated what they heard on the tape, but at a slower speed, so we’d get a web of language.
Certainly anything that is news or opinion needs to be free on the Web, because the Web is this very fluid medium that is very much driven by links and the flow of visitors through a discussion via links.
Brave plays the long game on behalf of users first, and also publishers, to win a better Web with fast, safe browsing, anonymous micropayments, and user control over data.
I believe that a web series allows actors the freedom to express their views.

History suggests the 2010s will give rise to a super-unicorn or two that reflect the key tech wave of the decade, the mobile web.
Any newspaper, from the first line to the last, is nothing but a web of horrors, I cannot understand how an innocent hand can touch a newspaper without convulsing in disgust.
Typing with your fingers or thumbs is sooooo 2012. I tweeted that earlier in the year. I type with my eyes. Not only that, I navigate my computer, create and play music, keep a calendar, conference call, lead web X meetings, text and, obviously, tweet with my eyes.
I’m going to do a sequel to ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ and this one is called ‘The Girl in the Spider’s Web’, which is an American production. It’s a clean slate: new cast, new director and everything and they’re skipping from book one to book four.
I’ve been on the Web from the beginning of the Web. The good part about writing about technology is that you never run out of ideas, because it’s changing so fast. The bad part is that it’s changing so fast that there’s a million new products and ideas every day and every week.
If the Starbucks secret is a smile when you get your latte… ours is that the Web site adapts to the individual’s taste.
O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
Unlike with any other art form, filmmakers have this unique web of festivals. There are hundreds. It is a democratic system in which you submit films, and if they are good enough, they play. The only barrier to entry is the submission fee.
Many company policies restrict use of E-mail, limit access to offensive Web sites and prohibit disclosure of confidential information. Few policies, if any, directly address personal Web pages.

Thank you for making a web site for me. I was so surprised when I found it.
Man does not weave this web of life. He is merely a strand of it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.
The wisdom of the crowds has peaked. Web 3.0 is taking what we’ve built in Web 2.0 – the wisdom of the crowds – and putting an editorial layer on it of truly talented, compensated people to make the product more trusted and refined.
Communication is paramount, and what medium or what format you utilize should be a non-issue. In some respects, that has created a barrier for new media, especially web new media, because often times maybe the media itself comes before the concept, before the ideas, and ends up navigating or dictating the outcome.
The basic problem is that web 2.0 tools are not supportive of democracy by design. They are tools designed to gather spy-agency-like data in a seductive way, first and foremost, but as a side effect they tend to provide software support for mob-like phenomena.
Never angrily rant into your web cam. While smashing a keyboard in half over a game of ‘World of Warcraft’ may seem totally justified in your head, to the rest of the known universe you look like a raging psychopath.
