tim berners-lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the world wide web. britain played an important part in developing the first generation of computers. the parents of tim berners-lee both worked on one of the earliest commercial computers and talked about their work at home. as a child he would build models of computers from packaging materials. after graduating from oxford university he went on to the real thing. in the 1980s scientists were already communicating using a primitive version(原始版本) of e-mail. while working at a laboratory in switzerland, tim berners-lee wrote a programme, which let him store these messages. this gave him another idea:write a programme that will let academics(學術界人士) from across the world share information on a single place. in 1990 he wrote the http(服務程序所用的協議) and html(超文本鏈接標示語言) programmes which formed the basis of the world wide web.
