Berners-Lee Claims Web "Still In Infancy" 206
eldavojohn writes "The man credited with inventing the Web at CERN, Tim Berners-Lee, has made a statement on the 15th anniversary of the Web's initial code release that the Web is still in its infancy. He also made a pretty insightful comment about CERN's releasing of the code for the Web into public domain: 'If we had put a price on it like the University of Minnesota had done with Gopher then it would not have expanded into what it is now. We would have had some sort of market share alongside services like AOL and Compuserve, but we would not have flattened the world.'"

Why? "Internet" is not a proper name, like George or Indiana. It's a common noun, a thing, like "television" or "microwave oven" or "pencil".
