Tim Berners Lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the World Wide Web.

Britain played an important part in developing the first generation of computers. The parents of Tim Berners Lee both worked on one of the earliest commercial computers and talked about their work at home. As a child he would build models of computers from packaging material. After graduating from Oxford University he went on to the real thing. In the 1980s, scientists were already using a primitive version of E-mail. While working at a laboratory in Switzerland Tim Berners Lee wrote a programme which let him store these messages. In 1990 he wrote the HTTP and HTML programmes which form the basis of the World Wide Web.

The next year his programmes were placed on to the Internet. Everyone was welcome to use them and improve them if they could. Programmers used his codes to work with different operating systems. New things like web browsers and search engines were developed. Between 1991 and 1994 the number of web pages rose from 10 to 100,000.

In 1994 Tim Berners Lee formed the newly formed World Wide Web Consortium or W3C. More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone can participate equally on the Web.

蒂姆·伯纳斯·李写的软件程序奠定了万维网的基础。

在发展第一代电脑中,英国发挥了重要作用。蒂姆·伯纳斯·李的父母都为最早的商业电脑公司工作,他们常在家里谈论工作。还是孩子的时候,他就会用材料建立计算机模型。从牛津大学毕业后,他就开始真正着手关于电脑方面的东西。在20世纪80年代,科学家们已经使用了原始版本的电子邮件。当在瑞士一个实验室工作时,蒂姆·伯纳斯·李写了一个程序,有了这个程序他就能保存这些消息。1990年他写的超文本传送协议和超文本标记语言的程序构成了万维网的基础。

第二年,他的程序被放置到互联网上,每个人都可以使用并能够改善这些程序。程序员使用他的编码与不同的操作系统工作。网页浏览器和搜索引擎被开发出来。在1991年到1994年,网页数量从10个上升到10万个。

1994年,蒂姆·伯纳斯·李成立了新的世界万维网联盟协会或称W3C。W3C代表200多家领先公司和实验室。他们共同确保每个人都能平等地参与网络。
