Last updated February 13, 1995. The Web provides a new paradigm for computer networking. The importance of the Web on society has as yet barely been noticed.
Society is defined by patterns of human communication.
Anything that changes those patterns will change society in a fundamental way. I try to keep track of important aspects of current technology and all aspects of future Web related technology. Naming is at the heart of the Web today. Understand naming and you understand the Web. Distributed computation is the next step in the evolution of the Web.
