There are a lot of problems with the Web, but there are a lot of great things about it, too.
Mike McCue
At 16, I started a web development business and had clients from the Netherlands, Caribbean, and across the country – none of whom knew my age because I could conduct all my business with a phone, scanner, and the Internet.
Aaron Patzer
Web media needs to move to TV metaphor – with full-screen imagery and other content interrupted with full-screen ads.
Nick Denton
I’ve heard people on panels say, ‘You must have a Web site. You need to tweet. Repeat the title of your book constantly,’ and I just want to say, ‘Shut up. Everything you’re saying is wrong.’ People will know instantly if your only motivation for tweeting is to sell books.
Maureen Johnson
The web continues to be a source of important photographs you see nowhere else.
Bruce Jackson
The technological breakthrough of the World Wide Web has been enormously beneficial to society.
Mike Fitzpatrick
Our role is to be a platform for making all of these apps more social, and it’s kind of an extension of what we see happening on the web, with the exception of mobile, which I think will be even more important than the web in a few years – maybe even sooner.
Mark Zuckerberg
People are doing amazing things right now on the Web.
Chris Hughes
I use a lot of the Web 2.0 apps that I’ve seen out there, and I think there is incredible work going on there.
Phil Schiller
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is the Achilles heel of the Web. The important thing is that it’s managed responsibly.
Tim Berners-Lee
The Internet was supposed to allow anyone to set up a web page and share their knowledge with the world. But in practice, it’s too difficult and takes too long, and almost no one does it.
Adam D’Angelo
One of the first major programming projects that I worked on when I was growing up in Ireland, back just coding by myself, was a programming language. Then I spent a bunch of time working on a new web framer. Just back-end things to make it easier to go in and build things on top of, do other development.
Patrick Collison
Acting is acting, whether you do it on TV, film, web, theatre or ads. It depends on the person, time and situation, what the individual wants to choose.
Karan Wahi
Written laws are like spiders’ webs, and will, like them, only entangle and hold the poor and weak, while the rich and powerful will easily break through them.
Anacharsis
The process of making a movie has expanded in terms of effort and time for the director, doing commentaries for the DVD for example, finishing deleted scenes so they could be on the DVD, and doing things like a web blog.
David Cronenberg
The target market is for people who have not been entrenched in Web culture.
John Patrick
I’m focused on getting to a place where we can prove that journalism can make good money on the web.
Kara Swisher
I’m OK with procedural code, and the web is a top-down type of problem. It makes sense to me that you have HTML, you spit out a bunch of HTML, then you call a function to do something and then call another function.
Rasmus Lerdorf
In Mexico, when we want to speak deep secrets, we drink pulgue together. It is a drink made from the cactus plant, and when you take the bottle from your mouth, it leaves a string behind, between the mouth and the bottle, like a spider’s web. It shows that the truth sticks inside.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
In Minnesota, we hold our leaders to a higher standard. We demand that the men and women we send to Washington stand above reproach and steer clear of the web of corruption, kickbacks and special favors.
Kurt Bills
Bands are going to MySpace because it’s free and they don’t have to know how to do a Web site.
Tom Anderson
As I started college, I started to build software products that I could sell to people over the Web.
Jon Oringer
E-mails, phone calls, Web sites, videos. They’re still all letters, basically, and they’ve come to outnumber old-fashioned conversations. They are the conversation now.
Walter Kirn
Students are very gullible about the web. The only way you can really sort out information on the web is if you’ve had a prior training in book culture.
Camille Paglia
Social innovation thrives on collaboration; on doing things with others, rather than just to them or for them: hence the great interest in new ways of using the web to ‘crowdsource’ ideas, or the many experiments involving users in designing services.
Geoff Mulgan
What we did with ‘AllThingsD’, though, was very different. We weren’t taking a newspaper and putting it on the web; we were creating a digital native product, and we did it inside of a very old, stuffy newspaper company at the time.
Walt Mossberg
But I don’t think TV will face any threats from web series. Every medium has it’s own audience.
Sanjeeda Sheikh
There is quality work happening on the web and there is room for everybody to work. It is not just about hero or heroine thing on the web. The focus is also on multiple characters.
Shibani Dandekar
The Web is the new way to figure out who’s hot and what’s not. You can’t let TV dictate because it’s so polished, so political. It is what they want you to know. The Internet is the raw.
Wale
One of the great joys of launching your idea on the web is that it’s a meritocracy. The good stuff will rise to the top and find an audience, and you don’t have to impress one idiosyncratic commissioning editor.
Rob Manuel
I have an architecture degree; that’s what my college degree is in. And that sucked. I started doing Web and CD-ROM development really early on, and then that grew into being an art director and doing advertising work.
Jonathan Hickman
We’ve learned quickly that the Web is far more pseudonymous than anonymous: online, our names have simply been changed to a number, an I.P. address, protocol, and code.
Kevin Young
His ambition is to be the spider in the World Wide Web.
John McCarthy
People really do not have time to read all the newspapers in the world and all the sites that we now commonly use on the web. There is no possibility of keeping up.
Felix Dennis
In my home office, I have two large, 30-inch computer monitors – a Mac and a PC. They share the same mouse and keyboard, so I can type or copy and paste between them. I’ll typically do Web stuff on the Mac and e-mail and chat stuff on the PC.
Matt Mullenweg
When you say ‘90210,’ everyone knows what you’re talking about. So why not make use of that? And they certainly have. I think the show looks beautiful, and all the actors are doing a great job. It’s a tangled web they’ve created thus far. It’s great.
Jason Priestley
The next time you see a spider web, please, pause and look a little closer. You’ll be seeing one of the most high-performance materials known to man.
Cheryl Hayashi
There is an overwhelming amount of information available to us all on the web each day, not to mention what is shared with us by our family, friends, fans, and followers. This necessitates the need to filter through all that information and to decide for ourselves where to put our attention.
Simon Mainwaring
The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.
Tim Berners-Lee
At the height of the first great dot-com boom, Craig Kanarick, then in his early 30s, was running Razorfish, a Web design firm he’d co-founded with an old friend, which at its peak had 2,300 employees in nine countries.
David Sax
If you use a proprietary program or somebody else’s web server, you’re defenceless. You’re putty in the hands of whoever developed that software.
Richard Stallman
I understand its fun to watch a web series up close to your chest is something else, but to see it on a bigger screen and to experience the emotions is magical.
Dia Mirza
Netflix and Hulu are just extensions of television that live on the Web.
John Cabrera
By mid-morning, I take a break from my novel and work on my Sunday Style column, which is about pop culture and what I find on the web. I usually start writing it at the beginning of the week and give it a couple of days to marinate before I return to it.
Zoe Foster Blake
I spend a lot, a lot, a lot of time on the Web.
Cathleen Schine
It can be a little scary. Like one time I posted a link to NPR because I thought it was interesting, and it took down their Web site.
Tom Anderson
Since the founding of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other mainstays of what technology writers have come to call ‘the social Web’ or ‘Web 2.0,’ a sizable portion of humanity has learned to be together while apart, sacrificing intimacy for control and spontaneity for predictability.
Walter Kirn
I have a Web site that parents and girls can use to learn about Title IX and take action if they find their school is not in compliance. Thirty years after Title IX passed, 80 percent of schools are not in compliance.
Geena Davis
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.
Aileen Lee
The web as a platform is the most powerful platform we have ever seen.
Mitchell Baker
The U.S. has more broadband subscribers than any country other than China. Americans rank at the top in their use of the web, and numerous studies validate that the U.S. is a global innovation powerhouse. The leading Internet and e-commerce companies are located here.
Michael K. Powell
One of the most effective ways we started our web efforts in the early 2000s with our first channel Frederator, we basically showcased 1000’s of shows on our show over a few years and what that did was introduce us to talented people from all across the world, you name it, we met people all over the place.
Fred Seibert
Somebody out there is going to do something that’s far more surprising than anything that I would do. I was surprised by the whole web thing in the first place.
Larry Wall
What is a Web year now, about three months? And when people can browse around, discover new things, and download them fast, when we all have agents – then Web years could slip by before human beings can notice.
Tim Berners-Lee
No, I got my web site going and said I have the record out. People were just falling on the floor – they couldn’t believe it – after all that time. You know, it wasn’t a compilation, it was new songs.
Jackie DeShannon
There’s a very long tail of all sorts of creative products – beyond our core web search, image search and advertising businesses – that are powered by deep learning.
Andrew Ng
Both search and social have these distribution angles to them. Before social, if you wanted any sort of traffic on the web, it had to come from search.
Lars Rasmussen
TechCrunch evolved on the Web as a new way of presenting the news on the Web.
Mike McCue
Although we leave traces of our personal lives with our credit cards and Web browsers today, tomorrow’s mobile devices will broadcast clouds of personal data to invisible monitors all around us.
Howard Rheingold
I created DonorsChoose by putting pencil to paper – literally – and sketching out each screen of the web site and how it would work. Then I paid a programmer from Poland $1,500 to turn my sketches and common-sense rules into a functioning website.
Charles Best
The advent of the Internet exposed the fact that the old business model for newspapers was broken. The world wide web fundamentally changed the media eco-system, challenging established journalistic practice in what is known as the mainstream media: radio, television, newspapers and magazines.
Lionel Barber
I take my laptop with me on the road. When I come home, I log onto AOL, go to the Web site, and answer questions.
Butch Trucks
Comedy lives on in the web and TV, but nobody’s pressing comedy albums anymore.
Jason Alexander
Video games and YouTube.com are creatively booming, even though Web design, as demonstrated by the ugly clutter of most major news sites, is in the pits.
Camille Paglia
Whatever I do, no matter it’s for television, web or the big screen – it should satisfy me as an actor.
Gautam Rode
Force-backed humanitarianism, which relies on rational influence over events in other countries, may have been a more feasible project in the bipolar era of the Cold War, with its relatively defined and stable web of alliances and proxies.
Pankaj Mishra
The web of domination has become the web of Reason itself, and this society is fatally entangled in it.
Herbert Marcuse
Goals do not get stored in your voice message or email bin. They are not going to reach out from the world wide web and remind you they exist. As a result, our goals do not get the respect they deserve.
Darren L Johnson
Global poverty is a complex web of interlinked problems. There is no one ‘silver bullet’ that will solve global inequality. Multiple contributing factors must be tackled in parallel. Yes, education alone is unlikely to lead to employment without economic reform to address the demand side in much of the developing world.
Adam Braun
I don’t know if I can call myself the poster boy. But yes, I am fortunate that a lot of work that I did was on the web. It has definitely got me some really good roles and a great audience.
Neeraj Kabi
I had fun doing a lot of low-budget movies and web series. And I got back into stand-up where I started.
Mary Lynn Rajskub
We thought that the Internet was going to connect us all together. As a young geek in rural Maine, I got excited about the Internet because it seemed that I could be connected to the world. What it’s looking like increasingly is that the Web is connecting us back to ourselves.
Eli Pariser
In Britain, a ‘block list’ of harmful Web sites, used by all the major Internet Service Providers, is maintained by a private foundation with little transparency and no judicial or government oversight of the list.
Rebecca MacKinnon
For me specifically, after travelling around the world I noticed that performers who had web shows had huge international popularity and that segued into a lot of events reaching out to book them.
Shangela
In general, Tor architecture is not suited for protecting anonymity of long-term, popular web services.
Alex Biryukov
If someone had protected the HTML language for making Web pages, then we wouldn’t have the World Wide Web.
Feng Zhang
I never expected to make the videos a full-time job. I thought I would continue to work as a freelance Web designer and just do the videos for fun. But the audience built so quickly that it became full-time.
iJustine
The idea of harnessing the intelligence of the readership has been lost in the quest for Facebook likes. For many, readers have become synonymous with hateful commenters. It’s time for a renewed push to realize some of the original dreams of the web.
Nick Denton
Berners-Lee started the World Wide Web as a set of protocols for transferring, linking and addressing documents to send over the Net. Without the global reach and open technical standards of the Internet, the Web could never have proliferated as it did.
Katie Hafner
Net neutrality is such an important principle for the Web and for the Internet. It’s how the Internet’s operated for all this time.
Megan Smith
Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.
Chief Seattle
All the information you could want is constantly streaming at you like a runaway truck – books, newspaper stories, Web sites, apps, how-to videos, this article you’re reading, even entire magazines devoted to single subjects like charcuterie or wedding cakes or pickles.
Mario Batali
My web site is so fresh. The paint is still wet, but stay tuned, because I have lots of personal things, specifically about what is happening day-to-day, that I will keep updating daily.
David Hasselhoff
I think we’re proving ourselves as we go along. The past several months our strategy has been evolutionary – making maximum advantage of our client browser, as well as our enterprise software for people who want to build Web sites.
Jim Barksdale
If you’re a cyber-criminal, the days of stealing data and then selling it for cash in the dark web – they’re not so profitable as they used to be.
Dido Harding
After ‘Punk’d,’ my company Katalyst did a deal with AOL to produce short-form content for the Web. At that time it was a different game. If you got front-page coverage on any popular website, you could probably get a push.
Ashton Kutcher
At Amazon, we were not working with the e-commerce division but with the Web services team. We started Flipkart completely from scrap. Moreover, the whole shopping behaviour and infrastructure challenges in the Indian market were different from that in the U.S. and European markets.
Sachin Bansal
O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
Walter Scott
The Internet is ultimately about innovation and integration, but you don’t get the innovation unless you integrate Web technology into the processes by which you run your business.
Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.
I would not be allowed to be in the web series without playing ‘Halo.’ I’m awful, by the way. I’m much better at the live action version.
Anna Popplewell
People enter Web sites hoping to be led somewhere, hoping for a payoff.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
I had not planned to work in a web series, but everything is digital now.
Shamita Shetty
The other day I was reading a blog and I linked over to Streisand’s Web site, and it was amazing politically. She’s so insightful and incisive. And she also says whatever she wants.
Liz Phair
Where today people surf the Web and check their e-mail on their cell phones, tomorrow they will be checking their vital signs.
Eric Topol
For me, social media isn’t just about connecting with friends and sharing photos; it’s a bigger, more tangled web that’s led me to jobs working in television, speaking gigs around the country, and it’s even helped me land my first book deal!
Franchesca Ramsey
I do not have a Facebook page, and I do not chat on Twitter. I don’t have a web site, even if there are people who have opened one in my name, complete with my photo.
Andrea Pirlo
Sustaining an audience with a web series is an impossible task.
Felicia Day
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.
Alok Sharma
By the beginning of the 21st century, entrepreneurs, led by Web and mobile startups, began to seek and develop their own management tools.
Steve Blank
‘Rise’ is a fun web series but one that tackles the practical realities of our lives. It is a story that most of us experience in some or the other form, and that is what got me excited about the story.
Vikrant Massey
The Semantic Web is not a separate Web but an extension of the current one, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.
Tim Berners-Lee
I like to say StumbleUpon provides a personal tour of the Internet. The responses are more targeted to your interests than they would be with a regular search engine. If you choose a topic on our site that you’re interested in, such as art, Web sites related to art appear, as if you’re leafing through an art magazine.
Garrett Camp
If there is no fundamental science then there is no basis for applied science. We have to strike a balance. 23 years ago the World Wide Web was born here. It has changed the world dramatically.
Rolf-Dieter Heuer
The beauty of the innovation that flows from the open web is that no one has to ask for permission, get a credential, or win a Disrupt or Launch award to go prove their idea is worthy. They just… put up a page on the web, iterate, iterate, iterate… and eventually, a Facebook emerges.
John Battelle
I don’t read a lot of magazines, but when I’m traveling, I’ll pick up a copy of ‘Vanity Fair’ to read on the plane – it’s like a full meal! The articles are so good, especially the crime stories. Browsing the Web is more like snacking – but I live on snacks.
Sam Trammell
I love the idea of something beautiful happening, and then it being abrasively cut into. Because in a way it’s similar to switching channels or surfing the web; I like people getting lulled into something and then taking them somewhere else.
Reggie Watts
I think long-term, Bitcoin is a currency of the Internet. So, even if humans don’t use it, routers will use it. Web browsers will use it. Web servers will use it.
Naval Ravikant
It’s not about HTML 5 vs Flash. They’re mutually beneficial. The more important question is the freedom of choice on the web.
Kevin Lynch
When I was 14, I spent a huge amount of time on the Internet, but not the Internet we know today. It was 1994, so while the World Wide Web existed, it wasn’t generally accessible. Prodigy and CompuServe were popular, and AOL was on the rise, but I didn’t have access to the web, and no one I knew had access to the web.
Robin Sloan
Everyone should have ten megabits and then the web will be a wonderful thing.
Jon Postel
The pace of digital innovation is astonishing. It’s impossible to imagine life without the web, smartphones, social networks. And yet the consumer products and everyday objects all around us are still essentially dumb.
Andy Hobsbawm
The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.
William Blake
I wasn’t weaned on the web nor coddled on a computer. Instead, I grew up in a highly centralized world where news and information were tightly controlled by a few editors, who deemed to tell us what we could and should know. My two young daughters, on the other hand, will be digital natives.
Rupert Murdoch
I want to create the largest archive of great God debates in existence: a Web site that becomes a great resource for both Christians and atheists.
Dinesh D’Souza
A number of organizations are already using Web GIS to create shared information and facilitate collaboration, and it is literally changing the way organizations operate.
Jack Dangermond
Any act often repeated soon forms a habit; and habit allowed, steady gains in strength, At first it may be but as a spider’s web, easily broken through, but if not resisted it soon binds us with chains of steel.
Tryon Edwards
One cannot separate the spider web’s form from the way in which it originated.
Neri Oxman
What magazines do is curate: we give accurate and trustworthy information. If you have a problem, it’s very difficult to go to the web and get accurate information… magazines, at their best, should be an incredible voyage of discovery.
Joanna Coles
I find it hard to think of myself as selling books. I don’t even have a Web site. I want to sit and write, not sell.
Stephen Carter
After Chuck Berry died, it seemed web sites popped up like mushrooms to show where he’d taken the guitar introduction to ‘Johnny B. Goode’ from to prove that his music was nothing new, that it was only ignorance, or vanity, that led his listeners to think that not only was the music different – they might be, too.
Greil Marcus
We could say we want the Web to reflect a vision of the world where everything is done democratically. To do that, we get computers to talk with each other in such a way as to promote that ideal.
Tim Berners-Lee
Merely that I have a World Wide Web page does not give me any power, any abilities, nor any status in the real world.
Clifford Stoll
Every single aspect of myself, let me put it this way, it’s all about trying to incorporate. It’s about trying to weave the web and keep everyone happy. And of course, it’s about giving value to those people so they continue to sponsor me.
Danica Patrick
If political cartoonists continue to rely on newspapers, we may be in serious trouble. It’s a very transferable form of journalism, though – it works great on Web sites.
David Horsey
There is no such thing as an impartial jury because there are no impartial people. There are people that argue on the web for hours about who their favorite character on ‘Friends’ is.
Jon Stewart
In my mind, there are too many copycat web products out there that are doing the same thing.
Daymond John
A newspaper is the center of a community, it’s one of the tent poles of the community, and that’s not going to be replaced by Web sites and blogs.
Michael Connelly
Perhaps the most damaging aspect of the Obamacare tech nightmare is how wholly predictable it all was. Anyone who has been involved in building the most rudimentary of web operations knows nothing ever works as it’s supposed to. Even awesome Apple, mighty Microsoft, and gargantuan Google miss deadlines.
Tina Brown
There are good roles for actors of every age now. In fact TV is a breeding ground for new talents. There are so many actors who start their journey with television, learn so much from here and then start try in films and web.
Rupali Ganguly
I remember being given a demo of the ‘World Wide Web’ at Peter Gabriel’s studio in the early 90s, and I had zero comprehension that I was staring into the future. I was just happy with my pager and teletext on the TV.
Robert Del Naja
The entertainment industry is humungous, and people have so many choices right now – they can watch web series, movies, stand-up comedies, and plays.
Mohanlal
I enjoy watching a couple of movies or a web series before I sleep.
Dino Morea
You can be in Ohio and shoot your own web series, if you want. If this had been around when I was in high school, I can guarantee you that my friends and I would have been shooting our own television shows and putting them online and trying to get as many hits as possible.
Busy Philipps
Web pages are designed for people. For the Semantic Web, we need to look at existing databases.
Tim Berners-Lee
Webs are made mostly of spaces. They break easily. They barely exist. They belong to the category of half-things: mist, smoke, shrouds, ghosts, membranes, retinas or rags; and they quickly fill up with un-things: old legs and wings and heads and hollow abdomens and body bags of wasps.
Alice Oswald
The Ethereum client is literally a fork of Chromium’s webkit backend. The idea is that users can build their own interfaces with HTML/JavaScript just like websites, and they will be viewable with the browser much like websites are viewable with the web browser.
Vitalik Buterin
With a 100-year perspective, the real value of the personal computer is not spreadsheets, word processors or even desktop publishing. It’s the Web.
Bill Atkinson
I don’t know how you can justify leaving any engagement behind in the social Web of 2011.
Gary Vaynerchuk
Thanks to our modern era, facts are incredibly easy to come by. A few web searches for your subject matter, and you have all the information you could dream of.
Andy Weir
Different mediums are giving a different kind of satisfaction. The reason I do television, if I do web for the same reason, I will not be able to sustain it, and vice versa.
Karan Wahi
We are seeing the beginning of things. Web 2.0 is broadband. Web 3.0 is 10 gigabits a second.
Reed Hastings
ArcGIS is an integrated Web GIS that is supported by services. These are abstracted in a geoinformation model that’s managed by the portal, and then accessible by a number of apps, which are the growing part of this system.
Jack Dangermond
The shape and solutions of the future rely totally on the collective effort of people working together. We are all an integral part of the web of life.
Jacque Fresco
My entire career is online – I create games on the web.
Zoe Quinn
I have been doing a lot of web shows but with so many platforms around, you can’t binge on all my work.
Karan Wahi
Many shows in television have tried to do a Web element, and usually it’s dumb. ‘iCarly’ has set the bar in television and Internet. I don’t think there is better example. That may be the most significant thing about it.
Dan Schneider
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.
Jack Dangermond
Cognitive psychology has shown that the mind best understands facts when they are woven into a conceptual fabric, such as a narrative, mental map, or intuitive theory. Disconnected facts in the mind are like unlinked pages on the Web: They might as well not exist.
Steven Pinker
Web series are the future.
Farah Khan
Women, by nature, are a certain way; they think a certain way. Women are web thinkers. We think wide… Why? Because we have children. Why? Because we were born as women to have children and to be able to take care of them. We do so many things at once.
Goldie Hawn
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.
David Carson
In the web products and services world, you have a real-time interaction with your customers, and then a real-time editing of how you as a company are doing.
Dan Levitan
I had learning problems when I was in elementary school, and didn’t really start to read well until high school. I never read any of the middle grade classics that were popular when I was young – ‘Harriet the Spy’, ‘Charlotte’s Web’, ‘The Witch of Blackbird Pond’, ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’.
Lauren Tarshis
There was a rivalry – and some pie-throwing. But that was probably because Gawker and Radar had more in common than they wanted to admit. Each was the other’s future. Radar served up the exclusives I always envied. Gawker was actually comfortable on the web, in the medium Radar should have made its own.
Nick Denton
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.
Pablo Picasso
One is that that’s the way we started and we thought there would be more value and less confusion if the business model was just based on delivering news that’s of value to Web sites.
Jay Chiat
That’s the power behind a tool like Facebook Connect. It is making a Web without walls. Facebook allows you to go to other sites to comment, rate, etc., without having to set up a new profile for that site.
Erik Qualman
I made a Christmas album a couple of years ago and just put it out on my Web site. It kind of smacked of this flavor. All of the reviews said it was Western swing even when it was Christmas standards.
Suzy Bogguss
I’ve always thought that gaming and YouTube and the web is a very post-punk extravaganza.
Malcolm Mclaren
One of the big changes at the heart of Web 2.0 is the shift from the creation of software artifacts, which is what the PC revolution was about, to the creation of software services. These are services that ultimately, if they are successful, will require competencies of operation, of scale, and the like.
Tim O’Reilly
The journey of Robert the Bruce became my journey because the moral of that story – as every schoolchild is taught in Scotland – is he went into this cave and watched a spider trying to spin its web and it kept failing several times, and then it finally succeeded.
Angus Macfadyen
Web users ultimately want to get at data quickly and easily. They don’t care as much about attractive sites and pretty design.
Tim Berners-Lee
Our strategy is very horizontal. We’re trying to build a social layer for everything. Basically, we’re trying to make it so that every app everywhere can be social, whether it’s on the web or mobile or other devices. So inherently, our whole approach has to be a breadth-first approach rather than a depth-first one.
Mark Zuckerberg
The difference between television, films and the web is that unlike the former, the latter is not appointment viewing. You decide the time you want to watch and how much you want to watch. The web is for the viewer.
Vikram Bhatt
I do all my shopping on the Web. I do much of my research online. I have a blog, too. It is definitely a distraction. It is definitely a blessing. What blessing isn’t a distraction, though?
Cathleen Schine
Digital is not about putting up your story on the web. It’s about a fundamental redrawing of journalists’ relationship with our audience, how we think about our readers, our perception of our role in society, our status.
Katharine Viner
Most spiders eat and remake their webs every night.
Alice Oswald
Web series are a way forward. It is a space where creative minds can express themselves without the fear of censor board.
Siddharth Shukla
The Internet allows the small guy a global marketplace. But technology is harmful in the sense that we get too much information from it. Because of the web we get 10 times the amount of noise we ever got, which makes harmful fallacies far more likely.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
There’s this large trend – I think the next trend in the Web, sort of Web 2.0 – which is to have users really express, offer, and market their own content, their own persona, their identity.
John Doerr
When in my writing lair, I have no access to the Web. Otherwise, I’m like one of those lab rats on too much sugar. To compile my Google searches would be to see my sludgy, allusive brain at work.
Michael Paterniti
I’m kind of glad the web is sort of totally anarchic. That’s fine with me.
Roger Ebert
I’ve got these two wonderful people who run my web site and put me on Facebook. They didn’t even ask me. I’m very appreciative of it.
Shelley Berman
Human attention is limited, and a massive number of newly browsable books from the long tail necessarily compete with the biggest best-sellers, just as cable siphons audience from the major networks, and just as the Web pulls viewers from TV.
Gary Wolf
For days on end, I avoid the Web, never logging in until about two or three, after I’ve written all morning. On a good week, I don’t go online till after Wednesday, so four or five days might lapse without my checking e-mail.
Mary Karr
I have realized over time that I missed the mark with HyperCard. I grew up in a box-centric culture at Apple. If I’d grown up in a network-centric culture, like Sun, HyperCard might have been the first Web browser. My blind spot at Apple prevented me from making HyperCard the first Web browser.
Bill Atkinson
Laws are spider webs through which the big flies pass and the little ones get caught.
Honore de Balzac
Today, most young women are exposed to technology at a very young age, with mobile phones, tablets, the Web or social media. They are much more proficient with technology than prior generations since they use it for all their school work, communication and entertainment.
Susan Wojcicki
The original idea was to make it easy to publish content on the Web and find an audience. What we learned from publishers is that the thing they want the most is more readers and more revenue.
Trip Adler
Think of Internet on the TV like the Web browser. The amount of time you spend on the PC in the browser is just going to grow continuously.
Reed Hastings
But what Web services suggest is that the connection is always there between an application that is resident somewhere in the cloud, and a user who is somewhere on the other end of a connection.
John W. Thompson
China wants control, and China will get control. That’s their default modus operandi. Crypto-Tech is no different than the Internet and Web businesses.
William Mougayar
I think for a young journalist, it’s better to write for the Web at the moment than it is for print.
Tina Brown
It’s quite complicated and sounds circular, but we’ve worked out a way of calculate a Web site’s importance.
Larry Page
The world wide web has really been quite spectacular and not something I would have predicted.
Jon Postel
Information is not just something you download from the Web. The way trees grow and where birds choose to live are much better signs of water quality than all the data being collected by the EPA.
Natalie Jeremijenko
For me, family feels like a web of love and care, and instinctively, too, I do just like nurturing things.
Martin Clunes
We must recognize that we’re all part of a web of life around the world. Anytime you extinguish a species, the consequences are serious.
Gaylord Nelson
If all else fails, there’s always print or web zines.
Rudy Rucker
When it comes to the mobile web, the technology industry seems to be split between two camps – native apps and HTML5 web-based apps.
Om Malik
The iPad is a superior consumption device for material on the Web.
Mike McCue
And as soon as the Internet hit and people started having their own web sites, I realized that people who did what I did, our positions were being threatened because, as journalists, we were the conduits between the celebrities and the public.
Jeannette Walls
If I was designing a web site for elementary school children, I might have a much higher percentage of older computers with outdated browsers since keeping up with browser and hardware technology has not traditionally been a strong point of most elementary schools.
Mike Davidson
Of course you can’t ‘trust’ what people tell you on the web anymore than you can ‘trust’ what people tell you on megaphones, postcards or in restaurants. Working out the social politics of who you can trust and why is, quite literally, what a very large part of our brain has evolved to do.
Douglas Adams
The one problem with the Internet for journalists who like doing long form is that any story that’s going to involve 16 screens on the web page… that’s asking a lot of people.
Nancy Gibbs
When I do web shows, I want to do something that is good and different.
Shriya Pilgaonkar
I’ve always liked the fact that anyone with a great idea, access to the Internet, and an unrelenting will can spark a world-beating company simply by standing up code on the Internet and/or leveraging the information and relationship network that is the web. That’s how Facebook started, after all.
John Battelle
In my own private-sector work, I have become intrigued with RIWI, a Canadian based company that surveys random respondents on the Web to measure attitudes in otherwise hard-to-reach places.
Michael Hayden
I love the idea of web design that maximises expressiveness over functionality.
Porter Robinson
One reason you should not use web applications to do your computing is that you lose control.
Richard Stallman
Obama routinely pushed policy that pleased the tech-savvy, including his successful effort to keep broadband suppliers from giving preferential treatment to bigger web companies over individuals.
Jenna Wortham
For anyone who devours the web on a daily basis, the biggest problem is too much of a good thing. There’s so much extraordinary content – from articles to images, videos and Tweets – that it’s almost impossible to keep track of it.
Ryan Holmes
I have not looked at any of the ‘Pretender’ Web sites. I’m scared of the Internet.
Andrea Parker
Online abuse has been a problem since the earliest days of the web.
Katharine Viner
The fact that you can crawl the web is a commodity.
Carol Bartz
We believe PulseRank will replace PageRank over time for the real-time Web.
Kimbal Musk
Twitter needs to become more of a platform on the web. If Twitter went away today, people would just turn to Facebook. If Facebook went away, people would start screaming – it’s so universal.
David Cohen
The important thing is the diversity available on the Web.
Tim Berners-Lee
This is your silly web browser doing that. The file is correctly named.
Rasmus Lerdorf
People are doing amazing things right now on the Web.
Chris Hughes
Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.
Stephen King
We’ve got to lift our game tremendously. We’ll sell our business news and information in print, we’ll sell it to anyone who’s got a cable system, and we’ll sell it on the Web.
Rupert Murdoch
Talking, talking. Spinning a web of words, pale walls of dreams, between myself and all I see.
John Gardner
Infrastructure web services had to happen.
Jeff Bezos
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.
Derek Bok
Flash is one of those very useful, very closed, very proprietary non-weblike things that has great tools and serves a need very well. But in the long run, we see video as part of the web, and it should be handled just the way other html elements are.
Mitchell Baker
This is what I tell my students: step outside of your tiny little world. Step inside of the tiny little world of somebody else. And then do it again and do it again and do it again. And suddenly, all these tiny little worlds, they come together in this complex web. And they build a big, complex world.
Sam Richards
The Semantic Web isn’t inherently complex. The Semantic Web language, at its heart, is very, very simple. It’s just about the relationships between things.
Tim Berners-Lee
You can have information and ease of use and have artistic integrity at the same time. The art of being a good Web designer is getting yourself into that middle ground and treating it as a final destination instead of as a compromise.
Mike Davidson
Some critics argue that a tsunami of hogwash has already rendered the Web useless. I disagree. We are indeed inundated by online noise pollution, but the problem is soluble.
Howard Rheingold
I felt people wouldn’t be enticed by the web, but I was wrong. I too don’t watch TV anymore, and only watch digital shows.
Sanjeeda Sheikh
The Internet has improved a lot in the last few years, but still, you wouldn’t want to depend on Web sources for historical analysis. There’s just something hard to beat about a book.
Diana Gabaldon
Thanks to Twitter, Reddit, web media, and social media, we have the opportunity now to kind of blur that line between the people who produce the content, the people that watch it, and instead make it a conversation, make it a real community.
Matthew Mercer
The accomplishment of open source is that it is the back end of the web, the invisible part, the part that you don’t see as a user.
Mitch Kapor
Paper is a uniquely beautiful format, more so than the web, I think: you need to invest in the aesthetics.
Dave Eggers
‘Dependent web’ platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Google and Yahoo are where people go to discover and share new content. Independent sites are the millions of blogs, community and service sites where passionate individuals ‘hang out’ with like-minded folks. This is where shared content is often created.
John Battelle
The Web 2.0 world is defined by new ways of understanding ourselves, of creating value in our culture, of running companies, and of working together.
John Battelle
I have realized over time that I missed the mark with HyperCard. I grew up in a box-centric culture at Apple. If I’d grown up in a network-centric culture, like Sun, HyperCard might have been the first Web browser. My blind spot at Apple prevented me from making HyperCard the first Web browser.
Bill Atkinson
It’s very, very difficult to reinvent yourself when you’re 40 or 50, whether you are a taxi driver who now needs to become a web designer, or anything else. It just becomes more difficult and more scary.
Yuval Noah Harari
The web can be a fast trip to the library, giving you immediate access to a government report, or it can filter media for you, which is why I look at around 15- 20 of these sites every day.
Ben Schott
Five years ago, we thought of the Web as a new medium, not a new economy.
Clement Mok
When I grew up there was no web, blogging or tweeting. In fact, where I grew up there was not even television! I met a lot of my friends in school and in college, and they are still my friends today.
Indra Nooyi
One of the first major programming projects that I worked on when I was growing up in Ireland, back just coding by myself, was a programming language. Then I spent a bunch of time working on a new web framer. Just back-end things to make it easier to go in and build things on top of, do other development.
Patrick Collison
The mass culture of childhood right now is astonishingly technical. Little kids know their Unix path punctuation so they can get around the Web, and they know their HTML and stuff. It’s pretty shocking to me.
Jaron Lanier
I’m not entangled in a bunch of lawsuits and a web that I can’t get out of. I can hold my head up… a happily married man who has his head in order. There isn’t a bunch of scandal in my life.
Prince
If you think about the web, the web has been an incredible development platform, and everything today is developed on the web. In the future, everything is going to be developed with the blockchain in mind.
William Mougayar
India’s sprawling subcontinent can never become a plus-size Singapore. But perhaps we can weave together an urban web that is the equivalent of a thousand Singapores.
Anand Mahindra
We started to consider what became Amazon Web Services between 2000 and 2003.
Andy Jassy
If you don’t have an E-mail address, you’re in the Netherworld. If you don’t have your own World Wide Web page, you’re a nobody.
Clifford Stoll
Cary and I are working together on another movie, Charlotte’s Web.
Thomas Haden Church
I definitely feel like there’s a lot of terrible things on the Internet, obviously. You can really pretty much find anything on there. It’s pretty awful. And the crazy thing is that we don’t even access that much of it – it’s like the dark web or whatever. It’s the other Internet that we don’t even access.
Miles Heizer
As the web becomes more and more of a part of our every day lives, it would be a horrible tragedy if it was locked up inside of companies and proprietary software.
Matt Mullenweg
While foreign competitors, French or Japanese or German, merrily bid for contracts abroad, American companies find themselves tangled in a web of legislation designed to express disapproval, block trade in certain commodities, or perhaps deny resources to disfavored or hostile regimes.
Elliott Abrams
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.
Joe Gebbia
These days with the web, you can burn out a character really quick.
Bobby Moynihan
People are willing to support and watch web series as a legitimate form of entertainment.
Issa Rae
Consumer confusion is the result of many individual problems when it comes to website design and development services, but in a nutshell, it boils down to the rapid growth of the Web and the lack of competitive measure available.
Molly Holzschlag
For me, films are my priority for sure and web has its own fun.
Shriya Pilgaonkar
There’s no question that looking down to search the Web, send a text message, or log onto Facebook puts you in danger and puts people around you on the road in danger.
Ted Deutch
I don’t need to wait for someone else to get a bright idea and say, ‘I wanna work with this guy.’ I can do my own thing and drop it right on the Web and bypass you and your bright idea.
Charlie Murphy
To create an open protocol which helps coordinate resources towards a common goal, the resources need to be known at some level in the same way a lot of of data on the web needs to be public for it to be traversable and useful.
Fred Ehrsam
Stripe is building payment infrastructure for the Web, so we make it easy to accept credit cards online. Before Stripe, the way you’d do this is using the legacy banking structure. It was slow, it was complex, it was expensive. It had this very chilling effect on e-commerce.
John Collison
We’ve seen a massive attack on the freedom of the web. Governments are realizing the power of this medium to organize people and they are trying to clamp down across the world, not just in places like China and North Korea; we’re seeing bills in the United States, in Italy, all across the world.
Sergey Brin
What the Web has never figured out is how to pay for reporting, which, with the collapse of print newspapers, is in desperately short supply, and without which even the most prolific commenters will someday run out of things to say.
George Packer
When you look at Google, its job is to find you the perfect web page. There are a lot of cases when you want to know something and a list of websites isn’t ideal.
Adam D’Angelo
We haven’t shed our engineering pragmatism, so we accomplish things in the simplest manner possible. It helps with budget, obviously. We’re not getting rich off web video, and we’re supporting two families with our income, so we need to keep as much of the budget to ourselves.
Rhett McLaughlin
With a Web and iPhone app, I try to find new and tiny ways to delight my customers. They may not notice, but it helps drive goodwill and makes your product remarkable.
Marco Arment
If you’re looking to grow your user base, is there a best way to cost-effectively attract valuable users? I’m increasingly convinced the best way is by harnessing a concept called social proof, a relatively untapped gold mine in the age of the social web.
Aileen Lee
We were the first people to do advertising on the Web. I actually saw in 1993 that the ad could be the content, the destination.
Tim O’Reilly
My job was to turn the company around and to give Time Warner a profitable Web business to spin off and a profitable access business that still throws off a tremendous amount of cash. I can check both of those boxes. I am done, and I feel good about what we’ve accomplished.
Randy Falco
Many thought it was a fool’s errand – that the browser companies were never going to listen to us. Others argued that, ‘Users don’t care if you use Web standards.’ Well, of course they don’t. They just know that your site works better.
Jeffrey Zeldman
I was a big reader as a kid, but it was ‘Charlotte’s Web’ that showed me you could feel as if you were actually living inside a book.
Libba Bray
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.
Sophia Amoruso
If I see something dubious, say on a blog or a Web site, and I don’t see it anywhere else, I’ll just go right to the source and check it out.
Al Michaels
At one point, I was blogging prodigiously, in the late ’90s; and I was getting, like, millions of pages because I was, like, one of the only people writing about web design, and I was always writing about web design.
Jeffrey Zeldman
As much as I love scores of wonderful sites across the web, most of them are driven by the daily grind of the display/pageview hamster wheel. They create 20, 30, 40 ‘content snacks’ a day, and I miss far more than I consume.
John Battelle
Our contemporary analogues to the personal notebook now live on the web – communal, crowdsourced, and shared online in real time. Some of the most interesting and vital work I come across exists only in pixels.
Jenna Wortham
One does not have to get frustrated with getting an opportunity, whether it is film, short film, web series or TV shows… As an entertainer, opportunities have expanded.
Nora Fatehi
When you’re in the middle of writing a song, you can come up with this whole web of stuff only you know how to get through. That’s very entertaining for me to do that.
Jakob Dylan
Small businesses no longer need to feel like a deer in the headlights when considering constructing or updating their Web sites. With ClickThings what you see is what you get, unlike some other competitive Web-based Website building tools.
Boomer Esiason
When you are putting yourself out there – be it a web series, movie or a reality show – you have to prepare for the good and the bad.
Neelam Kothari
The best thing about the Web is the sound of all the individual voices rising.
Jami Attenberg
It’s only natural that the heavy users help contribute to the investment to keep the Web healthy. That is the most important concept of net neutrality.
Lowell McAdam
The platform doesn’t really matter to me, whether it’s stage or theatre or even a web series. I just am more interested in, like, if it’s a story that I would want to watch and if it’s a character that I feel like I can contribute something to, then that’s really what gets me.
Julia Stiles
The web’s earliest architects and pioneers fought for their vision of freedom on the Internet at a time when it was still small forums for conversation and text-based gaming. They thought the web could be adequately governed by its users without their needing to empower anyone to police it.
Jenna Wortham
What we did not imagine was a Web of people, but a Web of documents.
Dale Dougherty
Amazon led with online bookselling, web services, and drones.
Adam Lashinsky
The fault lines are shifting from the boundaries of nations into the web of our societies and the streets of our cities. And, terrorism and extremism are a global force that are larger than their changing names, groups, territories and targets.
Narendra Modi
On our Web site, we have people complaining about us not playing new stuff. But there’s so many classic Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, you can’t go out and just do a bunch of new things.
Johnny Van Zant
I used to do improv in New York, and it was sort of embarrassing to tell people that I was the Web video girl and having to explain that was a viable form of entertainment.
Grace Helbig
Ajax is an important development for Web applications, and its importance is only going to grow.
Jesse James Garrett
Even as the Internet has revived hope of a universal library and Google seems to promise an answer to every query, books have remained a dark region in the universe of information. We want books to be as accessible and searchable as the Web. On the other hand, we still want them to be books.
Gary Wolf
It takes a village to earn a spot representing your country, and I know that every single person who helped me get to the Olympics was also touched by the dream. The web of inspiration is incredible. Because of this, I know that the core principles and spirit of what the Olympics stand for are worth protecting.
Gretchen Bleiler
I was told having a website would help me. I have yet to figure out why my life story needs to be on the web.
Wally Schirra
So ensuring the integrity of the data and integrity and validity of the connection is a very important element in any company’s strategy that is moving towards a Web service paradigm.
John W. Thompson
In comparison, Google is brilliant because it uses an algorithm that ranks Web pages by the number of links to them, with those links themselves valued by the number of links to their page of origin.
Michael Shermer
I’ve directed web series, music videos, film shorts, and theater. It’s just a hat I put on.
Malik Yoba
Web banking lets you monitor your spending, tweak your budget, schedule payments, and more, particularly if you marry your online bank with the personal-finance management tools available online.
Jean Chatzky
There are two main methodologies of open source development. There’s the Apache model, which is design by committee – great for things like web servers. Then you have the benevolent dictator model. That’s what Ubuntu is doing, with Mark Shuttleworth.
Matt Mullenweg
I still blog, but I do think blogging will become obsolete, as there are more ways of interacting on the Web with low barriers to entry for people to engage and participate.
Biz Stone
The Web isn’t an electronic storefront to do business in the old way. The Web is the business.
Mark Getty
The web is just another stunning point in the two-hundred-thousand-year history of human beings on earth. The taming of fire; the discovery of penicillin; the publication of ‘Jane Eyre’ – add anything you like.
Ellen Ullman
The Mesh difference is that with GPS-enabled mobile Web devices and social networks, physical goods are now easily located in space and time.
Lisa Gansky
The shape and solutions of the future rely totally on the collective effort of people working together. We are all an integral part of the web of life.
Jacque Fresco
Newspapers are the engines that drive the Web.
George Vecsey
I love the web, but man, I look at my browser, and there are, like, twenty tabs up there, all jostling for space and time, all framed by a mosaic of other apps, other work, other entertainment… so even when I really am paying attention to something on the web, there’s this peripheral haze.
Robin Sloan
O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
Walter Scott
You cannot die. My energy will return to where it came from, part of a massive, incomprehensible universal web of energy.
Noel Edmonds
We’ve seen a massive attack on the freedom of the web. Governments are realizing the power of this medium to organize people and they are trying to clamp down across the world, not just in places like China and North Korea; we’re seeing bills in the United States, in Italy, all across the world.
Sergey Brin
I haven’t heard of any cases of anti-American blog posts being censored or bloggers encountering consequences for anti-American speech on the web in China.
Rebecca MacKinnon
Being web video ‘experts’/’pioneers,’ whatever you may want to call us, has us always thinking about content that is outside the box, inherently viral in itself and good for web video audiences, as you can’t just put out a good piece of content and expect it to be seen.
Benny Fine
The technological revolution is itself a direct descendant of the Ancient Greeks’ historia, and the web is populated by young people who want to dive into the past.
Bettany Hughes
The kids all literally think I’m Spider-Man, and they ask me how I shoot my webs. It’s flattering and crazy, but it’s Spider-Man they’re in awe of, not Jake Epstein.
Jake Epstein
‘The Muthaship’ was an experiment. All my friends are working at Endemol, so they just kind of pushed me into it to see if we could shoot a little web series on an iPhone – and that’s what we did: we shot it on an iPhone. So it’s so experiential and so silly.
Drea De Matteo
The next time you see a spider web, please, pause and look a little closer. You’ll be seeing one of the most high-performance materials known to man.
Cheryl Hayashi
In truth, the world is now a seamless web from which no nation, large or small, young or old, can disassociate itself. Every attitude and every action of every nation can affect the welfare and security of every other nation around the globe.
Robert Kennedy
It does not bother me whether my work is reaching the audience through cinema, TV or a web series.
Jaideep Ahlawat
With 950 reporters and 79 bureaus, Bloomberg competes to break news with Dow Jones, Reuters and Bridge News along with newspaper Web sites, dozens of smaller Internet sites, and even gossipy chat rooms.
Alex Berenson
The Mobile Web Initiative is important – information must be made seamlessly available on any device.
Tim Berners-Lee
I borrowed a creaky laptop from my husband, went into the web, and never came back.
Natalie Massenet
Never mention a web site is coming until it’s already there.
David E. Sanger
I’ve been a DJ, janitor, ditch digger, waitress, computer instructor, programmer, mechanic, web developer, clerk, manager, marketing director, tour guide and dorm manager, among other things.
Sherrilyn Kenyon
Robots are great. I am saying that now so that when a future civilization of robots takes us captive, they will search through the ‘Guardian’ web archive and realise I said, ‘Robots are great,’ and then they’ll choose to save me.
Matt Haig
Reading for me will be a combination of books, magazines, Tumblr and just kind of the Web in general on the iPad.
David Karp
Spending most of my time on chess there is not much else I can be much good at but I enjoy spending time with my wife, parents, siblings and friends, listening to music, some sports, the Web and well… the usual stuff.
Anish Giri
The web of life, love, suffering and death unites all beings.
Alex Grey
I think the more web video there is, the more press you’ll get, as well as all the people who want to tell stories that haven’t been told before but can’t do that on TV because different stories are a risk.
Felicia Day
If you don’t have an E-mail address, you’re in the Netherworld. If you don’t have your own World Wide Web page, you’re a nobody.
Clifford Stoll
I think we know too much about actors as it is and their personal lives and it’s this information age where we’re stimulated constantly by the celebrity buzz effect or whatever it is, these web sites and blogs and different things.
Ryan Reynolds
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.
Jason Calacanis
Comedians are ridiculously oversensitive, so, especially with the Internet, you feel everything, like a spider on a web going, ‘Oh God, I’m getting stomped’.
Noel Fielding
The liberation children experience when they discover the Internet is quickly counteracted by the lure of e-commerce web sites, which are customized to each individual user’s psychological profile in order to maximize their effectiveness.
Douglas Rushkoff
In the U.S., we are free to speak our minds and to spend money without being forced to reveal our identities – except when using the Web. Browsing the Web leaves digital tracks everywhere in the form of log files, and anyone who hosts a Web site can be easily traced.
Jamais Cascio
If I get a good script, I would love to act in a web series as well.
Nithiin
What search is for the Web, maps are for mobile.
Noam Bardin
In this digital world, web shows are a total game changer. Compared to films, they allow you to have far more choices to collaborate with super- talented people, dig deeper into a character, explore fresh creative ideas, with less restrictions.
Anupriya Goenka
On the Web we all become small-town visitors lost in the big city.
Alison Gopnik
The Deep Web contains shockingly valuable information. Can you imagine how cancer research would blossom if every researcher had instant access to every research paper done by every single university and research lab in the world?
John McAfee
My goal in creating Geek & Sundry was to create a community based around web video, and we’ve accomplished that, especially on our budget.
Felicia Day
I’m in a very fortunate position, in that if I had an idea, and I could do it on a web budget, I could probably get it made; it’s just a question of finding the time to really develop it, because I don’t want to make anything that I don’t believe in 100 percent.
Felicia Day
I don’t surf the web very much.
Tyler Blackburn
The kind of environment that we developed Google in, the reason that we were able to develop a search engine, is the web was so open. Once you get too many rules, that will stifle innovation.
Sergey Brin
When we launched If WeRanTheWorld, I said to my team, I want us to innovate in every aspect of how we design and operate this as a business venture, as much as the web platform itself – because I want us to design our own startup around the working lives that we would all like to live. Women and men alike.
Cindy Gallop
The web site and the Internet are a whole new ball game.
Johnny Rivers
If I’d had more time or been a better writer, I would have tried to put the same ideas and experiences into a novel. But I didn’t so I slapped it up on the Web.
Philip Greenspun
Back in the ’90s, folks were not sure if they could trust the Web, and frankly, a lot of the services back then didn’t provide massive value.
Jason Calacanis
Now that I finally have the time for it, this web surfing stuff turns out to be as interesting and fun and addictive as you’ve all been telling me. Zipping from link to link, chasing an idea across the noosphere, sucking up information like a killer whale – way cool.
Spider Robinson
People tend to think of the web as a way to get information or perhaps as a place to carry out e-commerce. But really, the web is about accessing applications.
Marc Andreessen
While GeoCities isn’t cool, it isn’t a bad thing. It did a great thing – enabled great people to instantly publish to the Web.
Evan Williams
I was inspired by the Hole in the Wall project, where a computer with an internet connection was put in a Delhi slum. When the slum was revisited after a month, the children of that slum had learned how to use the worldwide web.
Sugata Mitra
It was not until Web comics that I saw stories about women and stories by women and things that were aimed specifically at female readership. It was just kind of this free-for-all that was achieving something amazing with creativity. That was where I got my start.
Noelle Stevenson
Advertisers don’t want to put their ads next to the investigative story; it’s extremely difficult to do that. And very few people today actually read those serious news stories on the Web now.
Pierre Omidyar
I want to see more people push what it means to be a web show… because it’s very difficult to make a living making those types of shows.
Freddie Wong
The original idea of the web was that it should be a collaborative space where you can communicate through sharing information.
Tim Berners-Lee
We are in niche consumption mode, but ‘niche’ doesn’t mean ‘small’ anymore. Niche can mean focused, and particularly with the Web, which is a global audience… you can have something niche and still get 10 to 15 million views.
Chris Hardwick
One thing I’m working on is an episodic web series titled ‘One Warm Night.’ It’s a kinda crazy, quirky series, filled with a lot of misfits, oddballs… ninjas.
Justin Lee
When something is such a creative medium as the web, the limits to it are our imagination.
Tim Berners-Lee
The issue in Web accessibility is the fact that blind and visually-impaired people need the single biggest boost to achieve equivalence, since the real-world Web is a visual medium.
Joe Clark
I always wanted to do a web series where I play a negative character, or someone who’s a druggie, or a spoilt child.
Riya Sen
WorldGate offers interactive set-top-box applications. Its customers want to interact with the Web as an adjunct to other things they can do, and WorldGate allows that through the layout engine in Mozilla, called Gecko.
Mitchell Baker
I think there’s a future where the Web and print coexist and they each do things uniquely and complement each other, and we have what could be the ultimate and best-yet array of journalistic venues.
Dave Eggers
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.
Jason Reitman
If the Starbucks secret is a smile when you get your latte… ours is that the Web site adapts to the individual’s taste.
Reed Hastings
When it broke out in the mid 1990s, the web was society’s first at-scale digital artifact. It spread in orders of ten, first thousands, then millions, then hundreds of millions of pages – and on it went, to the billions it now encompasses.
John Battelle
Web publishing can create common spaces; it all depends on how we, the readers and sometimes the producers, react to technological change. If we sort ourselves into narrow groups, common spaces will be in big trouble. But there’s no reason not to have common spaces on the Internet. There are lots of them out there.
Cass Sunstein
I love a web series. But to me, it does the girl in Detroit a disservice who just watches television. It does a disservice to the girl on the south side of Chicago who doesn’t go online.
Lena Waithe
In ’93 to ’94, every browser had its own flavor of HTML. So it was very difficult to know what you could put in a Web page and reliably have most of your readership see it.
Tim Berners-Lee
Location is the sole difference between mobile and traditional Web.
Sam Altman
While a lot of what is on Facebook is a better amalgam of what AOL, Yahoo, Amazon, and other Web pioneers introduced long ago, with a nice dash of connection and really identified community, this kind of thing is not a new idea.
Kara Swisher
I’m not computer literate. I e-mail. I know how to get on the Web, but I haven’t crossed over into the internet world. I’m old-fashioned, I guess.
Katie Holmes
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.
Julian Dennison
My hope is that we will turn Greece into maybe the most transparent country in the world with everything on the web.
George Papandreou
The Internet has heralded a revolution in our society. It has transformed the way we do business, entertain, communicate, and travel. In many ways, the change has been positive. The web has brought new freedoms, spurred economic growth, and extended the boundaries of knowledge.
Theo Paphitis
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.
Jason Calacanis
The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.
William Blake
Thirdly, as we move through this process of integrating the communications, we will begin to emulate more of the World Wide Web in our work in the future.
Stephen Cambone
My two must-haves are my cell phone and my MacBook Pro laptop, which allows me to update my Web site from wherever I am, whether I’m in Africa or in Sun Valley skiing.
Daryn Kagan
I am an ardent watcher of lot of series on the web platform.
Kunal Khemu
Technically, web browsers can control what users see, and sites using Javascript can overwrite anything coming from the original authors. Browsers heavily utilize Javascript to create an interactive Internet; sites like YouTube, Facebook, and Gmail could be crippled without it.
Ben Shapiro
I liked teaching Henry James. When you look down at a Henry James novel from a helicopter height, you find an intricate spider web that all clings together.
Helen Vendler
Before I started Code for America, I spent my career around startups. First it was game developers, small teams trying to make hits in a tough business. Then, when I started working on the Web 2.0 events, it was web startups during times of enormous opportunity and investment.
Jennifer Pahlka
Before the Internet, before BBSes and Fidonet and Usenet and LiveJournal and blogs and Facebook and Twitter, before the World Wide Web and hot-and-cold-online-everything, science fiction fandom had a long-lived, robust, well-debugged technology of social networking and virtual community.
Patrick Nielsen Hayden
It’s all about story and character with me, and I don’t care if the job is on daytime or prime time or the web. Hey, give me a good character and someone to listen, and I’ll do my acting on a street corner.
Justin Hartley
Although I believe the Web has greatly increased the distribution of quality news, I do worry about those who don’t have Internet access.
Jill Abramson
I don’t think that all the coal miners – or even more realistically, say, the truck drivers whose jobs may be put out by self-driving cars and trucks – they’re all going to go and become web designers and programmers.
Oren Etzioni
Life inside successful Web startups – especially the really successful ones – can be nasty, brutish, and short. As companies grow exponentially, egos clash, investors jockey for control, and business complexities rapidly exceed the managerial abilities of the founders.
Brad Stone
Tim Berners-Lee, the 44-year-old English physicist who created the World Wide Web, is precisely the kind of hero that a relatively simple invention with profound social and economic consequences should lay claim to. He is not just creative but democratic, diplomatic, polite and generous with credit and praise.
Katie Hafner
The kind of respect I have got for ‘Masaan,’ ‘Haramkhor,’ and web series ‘Mirzapur’ is special for me.
Shweta Tripathi
Control of the browser that people use to access the Web turned out to be far less meaningful than the search engine we use as the starting point for finding Web information. I switch between Safari, Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome browsers all day. I never stray from Google search.
Glenn Kelman
Games are the most social of all things on the web.
Fred Wilson
Because it’s so easy to medicate our need for self-worth by pandering to win followers, ‘likes’ and view counts, social media have become the metier of choice for many people who might otherwise channel that energy into books, music or art – or even into their own Web ventures.
Neil Strauss
The danger of the Web is that you can go from idea to public announcement in under ten minutes.
Seth Godin
The queen of aggregation is, of course, Arianna Huffington, who has discovered that if you take celebrity gossip, adorable kitten videos, posts from unpaid bloggers and news reports from other publications, array them on your Web site and add a left-wing soundtrack, millions of people will come.
Bill Keller
Flickr was designed partly to market itself. There are a lot features, in place early on, that let people take their photo, upload it to Flickr and post them elsewhere, on their own Web site or their blog, which meant a lot of incoming links.
Stewart Butterfield
The challenge is to manage the Web in an open way-not too much bureaucracy, not subject to political or commercial pressures. The U.S. should demonstrate that it is prepared to share control with the world.
Tim Berners-Lee
Let’s leverage the power of the Web – don’t get rid of it, but make the Web beautiful again. We need to give the content room to breathe and give magazine-style advertisements the opportunity to flourish.
Mike McCue
I love the Web, but the basis of my work is going through the physical books. When you go to the library, you see other books around on the shelves that you never knew existed. You can flip through a book and see the whole outline of it.
Camille Paglia
Basically, we convert the entire Web into a big equation, with several hundred million variables, which are the page ranks of all the Web pages, and billions of terms, which are the links. And we’re able to solve that equation.
Sergey Brin
Today, Web services is really about developing for the server. What it means to developers is any set of systems services that you make a Web service you to access by any kind of device with a highly interactive client, not just a browser.
John Fowler
One of my major goals is to develop a web of the small Wyoming museums and create a major museum system. There are about eight of these museums, and they are all scattered.
Robert T. Bakker
Google, Facebook, and other consumer web companies violate our privacy. But that’s only because they have an ad-based business model. They can only make money by selling your data – and degrading the product experience with ads.
Jose Ferreira
I spend much too much time on the Web with e-mail and surfing and reading my key sites, and a whole day can go by, and you wonder, ‘What did I do today?’
George Packer
CSS is the design language of the web, and it is not as easy to use as it ought to be, and it can be confusing, especially if you are new to it.
Jeffrey Zeldman
AIR grew out of our early thinking about rich Internet applications around 2001. We started to see web developers pushing the boundaries of what could be done inside the browser and taking advantage of Flash in ways that we hadn’t expected.
Kevin Lynch
We think criminality is something that exists in somehow another world to us. But actually, there is an invisible criminal web in which we are all enveloped.
James Watkins
His ambition is to be the spider in the World Wide Web.
John McCarthy
I drink a bucket of white tea in the morning. I read about this tea of the Emperor of China, which is supposedly the tea of eternal youth. It’s called Silver Needle. It’s unbelievably expensive, but I get it on the Web.
Antonio Banderas
Why call me inferior to another person just because of the platform we come from. I think the audience need to reflect on that aspect. If I work on TV, and on web as well, and even in films then why just call me a TV actor?
Karan Wahi
Part of Stripe’s vision is linking people better on the web.
John Collison
Social media has made the web all about me, me, me.
Erik Qualman
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.
Doug Aitken
History shows fans want consolidation; you see it across the web every place. The big players are people like Google, Amazon, eBay, Facebook.
Irving Azoff
Television and web are merging.
John Cabrera
I can’t remember the last time I looked at a Nirvana web site.
Krist Novoselic
We live in this thought web; we identify things and put them away and distance ourselves from them. But to be completely present? That is source, that is art, that is spirituality. And meditation is a way to defy fear and experience that source.
Ben Foster
The next wave of the Web is going to be user-generated content.
John Doerr
A number of organizations are already using Web GIS to create shared information and facilitate collaboration, and it is literally changing the way organizations operate.
Jack Dangermond
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.
William Mougayar
It’s easy to talk to people over the Web, but it’s not very easy to trigger transactions. That’s the thing we set out to fix with Stripe.
John Collison
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.
Jaron Lanier
‘The HoneyLine’ is my web site and TV segments that were birthed out of the stark reality that we all need a few people to help navigate this life.
Gabrielle Reece
Pinterest is offering consumers a way to discover things on the web, in a serendipitous way, with a beautiful user interface. So it’s offering a whole new paradigm called ‘discover’ and allowing users to be creative.
Ron Conway
Businesses might have been helped by the ability to promote themselves on the Internet, but they have also been hit by the web’s encouragement of time-wasting by their staff.
Theo Paphitis
Web servers are written in C, and if they’re not, they’re written in Java or C++, which are C derivatives, or Python or Ruby, which are implemented in C.
Rob Pike
I believe that a web series allows actors the freedom to express their views.
Rithvik Dhanjani
The post-Soviet mafia wove a spider’s web of dirty money around the world. Where better to attack it than to start with the Ukrainian criminal heavyweights – the ‘family’ and its closest circle?
Yulia Tymoshenko
I’ve definitely pitched some viral ideas and do have a pretty good understanding of the Web.
Ruben Fleischer
If you are just using the service to look at Web sites and download e-mail, then a DSL line may be cheaper. It is when you have more data going out that wireless can make a difference.
Blake Farenthold
We just sort of thought a Web series would be a cool thing to be able to send to our parents to show them that we were, in fact, actually doing comedy.
Abbi Jacobson
The idea of having no responsibilities except general edification seems like such a luxury now. When I had it, all I wanted to do was hack around on the Web. Now the vast majority of my hours are hacking around on the Web.
Matt Mullenweg
There is no need for neighborhood informants and paper dossiers if the government can see citizens’ every Web site visit, e-mail and text message.
Adam Cohen
I have been following an English web series and was inspired how Hollywood actresses express themselves and bring out their personality.
Tejaswi Madivada
Many dotcoms recruited people from existing companies who were quite experienced in finance, marketing, distribution and other disciplines but not necessarily experienced in the Web culture.
John Patrick
I think what we should have done is integrate the web site with the magazine much earlier in the process.
James Daly
The difference between graphic novels and web comics is even greater than graphic novels and story boarding. Web comics really is a legitimately separate genre.
Doug TenNapel
I don’t necessarily think anything on a Web site can have a result.
Matt Drudge
Jonah Peretti is one of the smartest web publishers out there. And Buzzfeed is an aggressive and dynamic company.
Nick Denton
Halloween is bigger than Christmas in America. I’ve experienced it in New York, Los Angeles and Washington D.C., and if you’re in the right neighbourhood, every house is decorated with spooky ghosts, spider webs, and jack-o-lanterns.
Rhys Darby
A wide variety of devices beyond personal computers are arriving, many of which will be used to browse the Web… The Flash engineering team has taken this on with a major overhaul of the mainstream Flash Player for a variety of devices.
Kevin Lynch
You know, bad poetry I wrote in high school can still be found on the Internet, and, you know, there’s a Web log of our college newspaper. You know, there’s so many different stages of my creative development are sort of on-record if somebody were to choose to look for them.
Lena Dunham
I love playing video games. I love listening to music. Just surfing the web. Facebook, Twitter, keeping in touch with people from home.
Trey Burke
Thousands across America are glued to their web cast to hear this. And actually, I’ve never met one human being who said that they had seen one of those.
Spencer Abraham
One thing we know for sure is that the Web is a collaborative medium unlike any we’ve ever had before. We see people working together, playing together, interacting in social settings using these media. We hope that will emerge as the new tool for education.
Vint Cerf
I was the first to advocate the Web. But I am very troubled by this thing that every kid must have a laptop computer. The kids are totally in the computer age. There’s a whole new brain operation that’s being moulded by the computer.
Camille Paglia
A protracted legislative fight will not move us closer to where the music industry wants to be – delivering music to fans through a variety of different, innovative Web sites.
Hilary Rosen
Here is a guiding principle: If a business collects data on consumers electronically, it should provide them with a version of that data that is easy to download and export to another Web site.
Richard Thaler
Singing is something that I have done all my life, but what I did on my first two records was to hide the vocals. They’re there to thicken the web of the cello.
Hildur Gudnadottir
In conversation marketing, you’re providing a service, a continuing dialogue whose course through the Web is unknown. The more value it adds to the ecosystem, the more it will be shared, amplified and celebrated.
John Battelle
Among many other things, a smartphone functions as a handheld digital sensor for the physical world. In other words, we don’t necessarily need our real world things to be directly connected, when the Web interface in our mobile devices provides the network access and intelligence.
Andy Hobsbawm
The power of the web is not in centralization; it’s not in closed systems or anything like that. It’s in its open nature, and that’s what allowed it to flourish for the first 10 or 15 years.
Matt Mullenweg
I know a lot of people love applications on their phone, but I’m like, ‘Yeah, I understand the nice experience, but there’s something about it that doesn’t flow well.’ Opening an app, closing it, moving to something else. There’s something about the open web that’s very free flowing.
Ben Huh
Despite demand, the BlackBerry avoided offering generalized web browsing support.
Steven Sinofsky
A review was published in Nature, very scathing, essentially calling me incompetent, though they didn’t use that word. I am putting a reply on my Web site in a few days, where I go through their arguments, paragraph by paragraph.
Bjorn Lomborg
If the Starbucks secret is a smile when you get your latte… ours is that the Web site adapts to the individual’s taste.
Reed Hastings
What’s great about having a sci-fi/fantasy show start on the web: that’s a gigantic part of your demographic right there. It targets a significant part of your demographic when you deliver online.
Ryan Robbins
Our Web sites and our e-mail lists are the two things that we control.
Teresa Medeiros
Web GIS provides us with a whole new window into our information through applications that are easy, 3D, and analytic. These applications are not just casual things, but reach deep into geographic knowledge and apply it.
Jack Dangermond
If you use a proprietary program or somebody else’s web server, you’re defenceless. You’re putty in the hands of whoever developed that software.
Richard Stallman
The immediacy of the technology of the web allows us, as songwriters, to write something very sharp and quick. That has a lot to do with helping a songwriter be more reflective of reality, instead of being in an area where you have to process things. It’s the difference between processing fish and catching it in a boat.
Chuck D
Every day the choristers of the social web chirp their advice about openness and trust; craigslist follows none of it, and every day it grows.
Gary Wolf
I’m not of the opinion that all software will be open source software. There is certain software that fits a niche that is only useful to a particular company or person: for example, the software immediately behind a web site’s user interface. But the vast majority of software is actually pretty generic.
Brian Behlendorf
There are two main methodologies of open source development. There’s the Apache model, which is design by committee – great for things like web servers. Then you have the benevolent dictator model. That’s what Ubuntu is doing, with Mark Shuttleworth.
Matt Mullenweg
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.
Niklas Zennstrom
If you look at the evolution of games from console to Internet to mobile, and look at social networking from Web to mobile, everything is fragmenting.
Chris DeWolfe
I did a web series years ago where I helped write a kind of a spoof called ‘Young Love.’
Annie Murphy
The Web forces me to be disciplined and not to waste time – but before the Web was invented, there were plenty of opportunities to do that anyway.
Fareed Zakaria
Companies often visit my office, or invite me to theirs, to brief me on new products, Web sites, or software before they are released – usually a few weeks or days ahead of time. I don’t review most of these products.
Walt Mossberg
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.
Olaf Carlson-Wee
When I took office, only high energy physicists had ever heard of what is called the Worldwide Web… Now even my cat has its own page.
William J. Clinton
If you are not on the web, you will have problems accessing services.
Tim Berners-Lee
The next wave of the Web is going to be user-generated content.
John Doerr
Comscore, Nielsen, MediaMetrix and Quantcast studies all show women are the driving force of the most important net trend of the decade, the social web.
Aileen Lee
God only knows what else is on the web about me.
Illeana Douglas
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.
Yehuda Berg
There are some channels that are trying out new content. These shows have new and fresh stories. The trend on TV is changing, and along with this, there are web series, too. But the audience needs to get used to these stories.
Kratika Sengar
The world wide web has really been quite spectacular and not something I would have predicted.
Jon Postel
I think newspapers shouldn’t try to compete directly with the Web, and should do what they can do better, which may be long-form journalism and using photos and art, and making connections with large-form graphics and really enhancing the tactile experience of paper.
Dave Eggers
Companies that are hosting Web sites or do a lot of teleconferencing need a lot of bandwidth going both ways.
Blake Farenthold
Web searching and cellphone use both flourish in the wee hours. Before the dawn of the web, I would stay up watching television. But there is something soporific about television: I would often nod off. Not so when I’m online. As technologies expand, these problems may only worsen.
Sendhil Mullainathan
The digital space is becoming more relevant, and people are watching a lot of stuff on the web.
Soni Razdan
In January 2012, Google Plus started to roll out support for nicknames and pseudonyms, but those registering with a name other than their real-life one must be able to prove that they have been using that alternative name elsewhere, either on the Web or in real life.
Rebecca MacKinnon
Domination and monopoly is the name of the game in the web marketplace.
David Byrne
The world is really run by the Web. There’s so much information out there that you can click and keep going down the rabbit hole finding stuff.
Big Boi
Even companies that do big business online struggle to be noticed by Google users. The Web, after all, is home to some 120 million Internet domains and tens of billions of indexed pages. But every company, big or small, can draw more Google traffic by using search-engine optimization – SEO, for short.
Jason Fried
I read the papers, I surf the Web. At the beginning of the year, I try to see at least two episodes of every show on our network. Am I surfing? All the time. I’m aware of the landscape. I’m a competitor, so I have to know whom I’m competing with.
Leslie Moonves
And I also have a camera, a Web cam, and I have one at home, so I can hook up and talk to the girls, and they can see me while we’re on the bus in the middle of nowhere.
Lee Ann Womack
Pretty much everything on the web uses those two things: C and UNIX. The browsers are written in C. The UNIX kernel – that pretty much the entire Internet runs on – is written in C.
Rob Pike
Google did a great job hacking the Web to create search – and then monetizing search with advertising. And Apple did a great job humanizing hardware and software so that formerly daunting computers and applications could become consumer-friendly devices – even a lifestyle brand.
Douglas Rushkoff
There’s no locality on the web – every market is a global market.
Ethan Zuckerman
I’ve said many times that I might as well have webs between my toes.
Phil Knight
It seems like the web, particularly software as a service, provides ample opportunities for you to flourish economically, completely aligned with the broader open source community.
Matt Mullenweg
I continue to meet people who have had their Web pages hijacked, their browsers corrupted, in some cases, their children exposed to inappropriate material from these dangerous programs hidden in their family computers.
Cliff Stearns
CNN has given me a platform to share my experiences. My Web site, YouTube Channel and Facebook page have exposed me to thousands of voters who share my concerns. My lack of seniority has not impeded my ability to communicate in any way.
Jason Chaffetz
Like the Earth, the Web is a less appealing place than it used to be. If I want attitude and arguing and meanness and profanity and wrong information screamed at me as gospel, I’ll get in a time machine and spend Christmas with my family in 1977.
J. R. Moehringer
The Web is not a prize to be won, and Mr. Ballmer’s attitude is deplorable in the light of what the Web means to the world, to users, to designers and developers, and – to put it into Microsoft parlance – customers.
Molly Holzschlag
The story of the Web starts in 1980, when Berners-Lee, a young consulting physicist at the CERN physics laboratory near Geneva, grew frustrated with existing methods for finding and transferring information.
Katie Hafner
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.
Jeffrey Zeldman
I never look at myself online, and I don’t read gossip Web sites.
Jonathan Groff
The Internet is a computing platform built on top of core technology. Applied technology is what gets built on top of that: It’s Web services.
Fred Wilson
I especially love ‘Web Therapy’ and I did ‘Eastbound and Down’ too. I had a lot of fun doing that.
Lily Tomlin
There’s no locality on the web – every market is a global market.
Ethan Zuckerman
If the world’s oceans have had nearly half a billion years with sharks as the apex predators, then the delicate balance of its food webs must rely on their presence in complex ways we cannot possibly predict.
Steve Backshall
I think what’s really amazing is that given the scale of the web and getting the compute power we have today, we’re starting to see things that appear intelligent but actually aren’t semantically intelligent.
Marissa Mayer
I don’t let myself ‘surf’ on the Web, or I would probably drown.
Aubrey Plaza
For most of the ’90s and the first part of this decade, content providers who wanted to publish online only needed to worry about the graphical web browser.
Mike Davidson
I’m transitioning to television and film, but ultimately, I want to have a stronger presence on the web and be able to curate the content that I want to see. To bring attention to other filmmakers and writers.
Issa Rae
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.
Pablo Picasso
On the web, people are experimenting with something new in terms of characters and stories. It is exciting for actors, as we get a chance to do something new.
Shamita Shetty
If millions of Americans choose to weigh in on the outcome of ‘American Idol’ through text messages and the Web, then why not harness similar technological tools to encourage discourse on the political landscape?
Ruzwana Bashir
More and more, job listings are exclusively available online and as technology evolves nearly every occupation now requires a basic level of digital literacy with web navigation, email access and participation in social media.
Michael K. Powell
What’s funny is that an old Web site of mine just had one fake bio, and everyone went crazy for it. So when I made the new Web site, I thought, ‘I just need to make this one even more absurd.’
Jarrett J. Krosoczka
I think anyone who uses the web is smart and will profit.
Jason Mraz
The web’s strength lies precisely in its unique position as the world’s first universal platform.
Jeffrey Zeldman
Before the advent of the Web, if you wanted to sustain a belief in far-fetched ideas, you had to go out into the desert, or live on a compound in the mountains, or move from one badly furnished room to another in a series of safe houses.
Ellen Ullman
I think exploring the Internet’s – and the Web’s – ability to facilitate personal linkages is remarkable; and expect to see additional social networking applications and services emerge.
Vint Cerf
When I use the Internet, it’s pretty much strictly for music. Checking out other people’s web sites, what’s going on, listening to music. It’s pretty much a musical thing for me.
Liz Phair
The Web’s core vision and value is to be platform independent. Microsoft has no right to think it can win a tool that is for the people, of the people, and ultimately – by the people.
Molly Holzschlag
Just as we accumulate memories of facts by integrating them into a network, we accumulate life experiences by integrating them into a web of other chronological memories. The denser the web, the denser the experience of time.
Joshua Foer
Libraries function as crucial technology hubs, not merely for free Web access, but those who need computer training and assistance. Library business centers help support entrepreneurship and retraining.
Scott Turow
Acting-wise, I did a web series. I play a music agent in a series called ‘Keeping Up with the Downs.’
James Michael Tyler
A review was published in Nature, very scathing, essentially calling me incompetent, though they didn’t use that word. I am putting a reply on my Web site in a few days, where I go through their arguments, paragraph by paragraph.
Bjorn Lomborg
The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider web.
Edwin Way Teale
I enjoy the Web site a lot and I like being able to talk to my readers. I’ve always had a very close relationship with them.
Anne Rice
The Web is now philosophical engineering. Physics and the Web are both about the relationship between the small and the large.
Tim Berners-Lee
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.
Olaf Carlson-Wee
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.
Claes Bang
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.
Andrew Rosenthal
We believe that the best Web content optimization strategy is something as old as journalism itself: the shocking truth and the authentic opinion.
Nick Denton
I was a kid of the ’90s, so I was always inspired by Gwen Stefani, especially the ‘Spider Web’ video.
Hannah Bronfman
Publishers can use realtime ad technology to build their brand on the realtime web. Realtime ad technology gets their hottest content in front of users seconds after it is published, ensuring that their content gets shared and becomes viral before their competitors.
Kimbal Musk
At the height of the first great dot-com boom, Craig Kanarick, then in his early 30s, was running Razorfish, a Web design firm he’d co-founded with an old friend, which at its peak had 2,300 employees in nine countries.
David Sax
If I were to write Web now, it would be a much, much darker book.
John M. Ford
I’m a huge believer in power of women on the web.
Aileen Lee
The Web is actually a coming together of three technologies, if you like: the hypertext, the personal computer, and the network. So, the network we had, and the personal computers were there, but people didn’t use them, because they didn’t know what to use them for, except maybe for a few games.
Robert Cailliau
I went to high school in Ellicott City, Maryland, and I felt pretty ambivalent about the whole thing. It just took time away from my doing things on the Internet – like creating clans in Quake II or starting a Web design nonprofit. In school, I was just a kid. Online, I had authority.
Alexis Ohanian
The web has introduced a competitive, and some might argue hostile, landscape for long, in-depth, resource-intensive journalism.
Chris Hughes
Think of any news site on the web that sells subscriptions; AOL has four times as many people as the largest subscription service. We have people who pay to use our products and services, and they are heavily engaged in our content.
Tim Armstrong
I spend lots of time on the Web, some of it even useful.
Victor LaValle
In the beginning, I thought mobile search was not much different from Web search. It’s just a smaller screen, a slower speed; it’s all the bad things. When I thought about mobile Internet, it’s all the disadvantages.
Robin Li
Once I was in a cafe in Portland and the woman at the next table and I began chatting and in the course of our conversation she strongly recommend I visit this web site called ‘The Rumpus’ so I could read this advice column called ‘Dear Sugar.’ It was so painful not to tell her that in fact I was Sugar, but I didn’t.
Cheryl Strayed
Organizations spend hundreds of hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars installing and implementing huge servers, new Web sites and applications. They have to continue to do that, but they also have to clean up the mess of the ’90s.
Marc Andreessen
I’ve made sure to always update my web properties constantly – Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, my Hypebeast blog… making sure I divided content across all of them to keep each outlet fresh to keep people coming back.
Theophilus London
If I leave my computer, I’m probably not going to get back for hours. If I take a few minutes to answer questions and go web surfing, then guilt kicks in and I get back to work.
Raymond E. Feist
The tone of good web writing grows out of email. It’s more direct, personal, colloquial, urgent, witty, efficient. It doesn’t waste your time. It reflects that engagement, responsiveness, and haste of web surfers, as opposed to the more general passivity of print readers.
Jacob Weisberg
Since the web is totally worldwide, we need a set of behavioural rules, laws they are commonly called, that are accepted worldwide. There is a big difference as to how things are treated in the U.S. and Europe and Asia.
Robert Cailliau
After college, I did a bunch of different jobs – taught English in Mexico, worked in public radio, worked for a web design company – but there was something about documentaries that really attracted me.
Marshall Curry
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.
Brendan Eich
The Web as we’ve known it for a long time has been pages linking and pointing to other pages.
Mike McCue
The Internet allows the small guy a global marketplace. But technology is harmful in the sense that we get too much information from it. Because of the web we get 10 times the amount of noise we ever got, which makes harmful fallacies far more likely.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
In ‘A Scanner Darkly,’ as in ‘The Spy Who Came in from the Cold,’ all intersubjective relations devolve into webs of suspicion and betrayal.
Mark Fisher
It was really hard explaining the Web before people just got used to it because they didn’t even have words like click and jump and page.
Tim Berners-Lee
Google has placed its faith in data, while Apple worships the power of design. This dichotomy made the two companies complementary. Apple would ship the phones and computers, while Google would provide Maps, Search, YouTube, and other web tools that made the devices more useful.
Ben Parr
We started on April 1, 2003. So long ago, you couldn’t watch video in a web browser; you had to watch it in a different player, like in Quicktime player or something like that.
Burnie Burns
I have been able to attend many technology conferences around the world over the years, including some of the largest, like Google I/O, Microsoft’s Developer Conference, Apple’s WorldWide Developers Conference, Oracle World, Le Web, and more.
Megan Smith
The access to information the web provides is both daunting and exciting. Information that was once secreted away in library stacks is now so much more easily available.
Alice Roberts
For my web series ‘Get Your Life,’ I wrote that and produced it and starred in it so that I could have a body of work that represents my voice as a writer and as a performer.
Amanda Seales
Women are the routers and amplifiers of the social web. And they are the rocket fuel of ecommerce.
Aileen Lee
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.
Charles Baudelaire
As a child I read all kinds of stuff, whether it was ‘Asterix and Obelix’ and ‘Tin Tin’ comic books, or ‘Lord of the Rings,’ or Frank Herbert’s sci-fi. Or ‘The Wind in the Willows.’ Or ‘Charlotte’s Web.’
Mohsin Hamid
The largest issue with search is that we learned about it when the web was young, when the universe was ‘complete’ – the entire web was searchable! Now our digital lives are utterly fractured – in apps, in walled gardens like Facebook, across clunky interfaces like those in automobiles or Comcast cable boxes.
John Battelle
The Web is a huge world.
Shervin Pishevar
Yahoo is a global technology company that provides personalized products and services, including search, advertising, content, and communications in more than 45 languages in 60 countries. As a pioneer of the World Wide Web, we enjoy some of the longest-lasting customer relationships on the Web.
Alex Stamos
Like most writers, I find the Web is a wonderful distraction. Who doesn’t need that last minute research before writing?
Chris Abani
The audience is different for TV and web, but the latter offers everything for everyone.
Mithila Palkar
Web series is a new format, where everything, from the writing to storytelling is different. As an actor you have to approach it differently because you have a character which can go on for a long time. It is my duty to be on my toes, understand the new technology and adapt.
