72. Tim Berners-Lee
The Mobile Web Initiative
is important - information
must be made seamlessly
available on any device.
I have always imagined the information space as something to
which everyone has immediate and intuitive access, and not just
to browse, but to create. [...] Furthermore, the dream of people-to-
people communication through shared knowledge must be
possible for groups of all sizes, interacting electronically with as
much ease as they do now in person.
