The Future of the Web

Tuesday 14 March 2006 17:00 - 18:30

Tim Berners-Lee, Director of the World Wide Web Consortium, Senior Researcher at MIT's CSAIL, and Professor of Computer Science at Southampton ECS

Location: Martin Wood Lecture Theatre, Physics Department, Parks Road, Oxford.

The development of Web technology has been an exciting ride, a series of socially motivated technical innovations: some languishing, others catching on in a viral way. As each development has suggested many new ones, and much of the original vision is still unfulfilled, there is a lot to do. This talk will discuss new challenges and hopes for weblike systems on the net.
