I Think, In General, It's Clear That

Things Can Change So Fast On The Internet.

Now, If Someone Tries To Monopolize The Web, For Example Pushes Proprietary Variations On Network Protocols, Then That Would Make Me Unhappy.

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.

The Web Is More A Social Creation Than A Technical One. I Designed It For A Social Effect - To Help People Work Together - And Not As A Technical Toy.

One Of The Things I Like About The Computer That I Use Is That I Can Write A Program On It Or I Can Download A Program On To It And Run It. That's Kind Of Important To Me, And That's Also Kind Of Important To The Whole Future Of The Internet... Obviously A Closed Platform Is A Serious Brake On Innovation.
