Tim Berners-Lee speaketh
Tim Berners-Lee, in conversation with Tracy Logan talks about the past, present and most importantly, the future of the Web.
Computers will become so powerful and there will be so many of them with so much storage that they will in fact be more powerful or as powerful as a brain and will be able to write a program which is a big brain.
