Welcome to the blogosphere...Tim Berners-Lee???

Now this is interesting: Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of the World Wide Web, has only now gotten into blogging. His first post is a great read and has already generated a ton of comments. I'll bet my next paycheck that he's got more subscribers to his RSS feed than most large media organizations. I know I did.

Sir Tim writes:
"In 1989 one of the main objectives of the WWW was to be a space for sharing information. It seemed evident that it should be a space in which anyone could be creative, to which anyone could contribute. The first browser was actually a browser/editor, which allowed one to edit any page, and save it back to the web if one had access rights. [...] That said, it is nice to have a machine to the administrative work of handling the navigation bars and comment buttons and so on, and it is nice to edit in a mode in which you can to limited damage to the site. So I am going to try this blog thing using blog tools. So this is for all the people who have been saying I ought to have a blog."

They say you always remember your first time (blogging, that is). Richard MacManus does, and so do I.
