World Wide Web Consortium(@w3c@w3c.social)님의 게시물 The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) was established in 1994 by Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee, to develop interoperable standards to lead the Web to its full potential.
We are an international multi-stakeholder community where member organizations, a full-time staff, and the public work together to build a Web based on the principles of accessibility, internationalization, privacy and security.
Please be more curious than critical. Your interactions go to real people who care and do their best 🙏
On 30 April 1993, at Tim Berners-Lee's urging, CERN released the code for the World Wide Web to the public for free.
Thank you CERN and thank you Tim!
