W3C in the news:
"The fediverse is a collection of decentralized social media services that interconnect via ActivityPub, a specification from the (W3C). The fediverse is nothing short of a renaissance on the social web because, for the first time in well over a decade, social media has a chance to be truly decentralized. This has massive implications for developers; it may be the best open platform opportunity since the blogosphere in the early 2000s."

Happy birthday CSS!

27 years ago, on 17 December 1996, CSS level 1 became a W3C Recommendation led by Håkon Wium Lie and @bert.

Kudos and many thanks to the Editors, Chairs and all who have contributed to CSS over the years and brought style and beauty to the web.

Tim Berners-Lee invented the Web and Vint Cerf invented the Internet. Some people often talk about one but mean the other.

They once wore custom-made t-shirts to help identify which invention was theirs!

a picture of Tim Berners-Lee and Vint Cerf standing next to each other in front of a green and blue curtain. Tim, on left, is a smiling man with light hair. He's wearing a blue tshirt that says "I didn't invent the internet". Vint Cerf, a smiling man with a white beard, is on the right. He is wearing a white button up shirt and over it, a blue tshirt that says "I did not invent the Web"
