#AboutW3C

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web Consortium, founded by Web inventor @timbl 🎊

We made a 2:27 video using graphic elements and text running on a timeline from 1989 to 2024 to highlight milestones for #W3C and the Internet.

Version without audio description:

Brian Kardell @bkardell of Igalia Chats @igalia interviewed Coralie Mercier @koalie our Head of W3C Marketing & Communications in a wide ranging, very geeky conversation which touched on the history of the Consortium but also hopes and ideas for its future including the importance of sustainability and human rights.

At W3C@30 @seth talked about the power of and our responsibility for the web to work for humanity.

"It's a privilege to be amongst so many that have created an incredible history, and I'm glad to have the chance to honor our community tonight for all that you've done.

I think it's perhaps an even greater privilege to now be amongst so many that will be part of writing the future history of the web and technology that is yet to be written and that is with all of you"
