eldavojohn writes "The man credited with inventing the internet at CERN, Tim Berners-Lee, has made a statement on the 15th anniversary of the internet that the web is still 'in its infancy'. He also made a pretty insightful comment about CERN's releasing of the code for the internet 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.""
