Oh, this really makes me wish I was there, that first day when they turned on the machine that says "don't power me down" and put that sign on there, at the beginning of the web, when the first browsers were being developed. So much potential, so many possibilities, so much innovation soon to occur.

Ironically, Tim BL mentions in his book "Weaving the Web" that when he first launched the web, nobody cared and people at CERN thought it was useless.
