  • The Internet is not FREE . I for example is paying £20/mo for an Internet Service.

  • lol @ 1:19 porn

  • if Tesla was allowed to do what he wished, the internet probably would have been sort of like a virtual reality or omnipresent psychic experience that would lead to existential humanism world wide , we probably would have been a type 1 or 2 civilization by now

  • @gamblemadman yes, he is the guy. but Ted Nelson is also important. Google for Ted Nelson.

  • @Starfighterking Only a service for the internet huh? Bit of an understatement their bro. Go on ANY website that talks about the creation of the w.w.w ... and Buerners Lee is the guy credited for its creation.

  • @gamblemadman The Web or W W W is Only a Service in Internet! And Ted Nelson was more important for the Web.

  • @Caprican28 World wide web is not the same as the internet.

    Do they teach you in America that the web was a US invention? Cause they shouldn't.

  • @Caprican28 yes, this is right. And the W W W was invented on a "NeXT Computer" from a Steve Jobs Company. Without Internet, no E-Mail, no IRC, no FTP and many other things and naturally also no W W W. And the forerunner from Hypertext and Hypermedia came from Ted Nelson.

  • Whats this about Brits inventing the internet? Is this what every country is teaching.. I guess the French say a French invented the internet too? Not only did I think it was created by more than one country but I thought the majority of the "creators" were American..
