The invention of the World Wide Web is one of the greatest inventions of all time, and it happened very recently. There is still a lot of possible expansion and use for the World Wide Web, and this expansion is happening rapidly to this day, such as the integration of internet with mobile devices. The internet has become a source for so many great things and it is now used by 3.2 billion people (Time). It is a door to immense amounts of communication and information. Practically all information in our world is recorded some place on the World Wide Web. It’s a hugely positive contribution to our society and will change the world forever. Tim Berners-Lee will always be remembered for this creation.
This ocean of information has also affected the church in a very positive way. Just like everything else, the church benefits from the ability to have a huge open port of communication. Anything that the church wants to do or communicate can simply be posted somewhere on the Web for anybody to see. The Web makes everything for the church easier. If a person has questions about Christianity, they can simply find that information on the Web. Tim Berners-Lee gave this world a gift that allows us to have access to whatever information we want.
You can actually still see the first website ever created by going to info.cern.ch This is very interesting to browse and is a great visual example with information about Tim Berners-Lee’s invention!
