                              <p>Sorry for the silence here, but the last week has been quite exciting and intense. I have been slightly busy with the  <a href="http://www.webfoundation.org/">World Wide Web Foundation</a> launch. Steve Bratt has written a <a href="http://www.webfoundation.org/news/2008/09/welcome-to-the-world-wide-web-foundation.html">first blog</a> post on the Web foundation blog (<a href="http://www.webfoundation.org/news/atom.xml">feed</a>). There will be glitches, but we are fixing them one by one. </p>

<p>You can also follow the discussions on <a href="http://twitter.com/webfoundation/">twitter</a> and <a href="http://identi.ca/webfoundation/">identi.ca</a>.</p>

<p>Any questions related to the World Wide Web Foundation, have to be asked on the foundation site, and not here. The <a href="http://www.webfoundation.org/faq/">FAQ</a> is a good starting point. We will return soon to our normal news and bits about W3C and its technologies. </p>

<p>It depends on what you call the World Wide Web. There was an initial project at the CERN in 1989. But there is a message from Tim Berners-Lee, on <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/alt.hypertext/msg/06dad279804cb3ba?hl=en" rel="nofollow">August 6, 1991 on alt.hypertext</a> explaining the project.</p>
