That idea of URL was the basic clue to the universality of the Web. That was the only thing I insisted upon.

Wandering around the web is like living in a world in which every doorway is actually one of those science fiction devices which deposit you in a completely different part of the world when you walk through them. In fact, it isn't like it, it is it.

The exciting new thing, call it Internet.2, would be where links were updated and moved depending on where people click. That would give you the kind of content screening that you don't get at the moment.

LinkedIn is the Netscape of its era.

Many people bypass search engines altogether and still find what they're looking for online. These Internet surfers are using direct navigation.

The Web belongs to everyone.
