Tim Berners-LeeSir Tim Berners-Lee was born on June 8, 1955 in London, England. His parents were Mary Lee Wood and Conway Berners-Lee, both mathematicians and computer programmers. He grew up as an only child and attended Emmanuel School in Wadsworth, England. He was a student of Oxford University where he studied physics and received his bachelor's degree in physics. While there he made computers out of spare parts. He was banned from school computers because he was caught hacking. After graduation he got a job as a software engineer at CERN, a European nuclear research organization and large particle physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. There are many scientists involved in testing at CERN and returning to their laboratories around the world, these scientists were eager to share and exchange results and information, but it was very difficult to send large amounts of information. Tim recognized this problem and saw the potential to create something. Tim Berners-Lee, understood the pristine potential of all computers connected together through the power of the Internet. Tim Berners-Lee had the chance to earn millions and even billions with the invention of the Internet, but he realized the importance of being free without making it free would fail because people would be afraid to test this new project and not they would have had free advertising. He also realized the importance of free sharing across the World Wide Web. Once the number of users on the Web reached a specific goal, its functionality, and thus its appeal to the group, began to skyrocket. Scientists and other researchers recognized that it was easier to publish the data once, on their own site or web page, than to continually answer questions via email… middle of the paper… joyful engineers, scientists and researchers. UK technologists. He has received numerous international awards for his inventions. In 2004 he was awarded the title by Queen Elizabeth II and in 2007 he was awarded the Order of Merit. He is also honored among the 100 greatest minds of this century. This invention helps shape the world in many ways. This may be the best and fastest way to transport information. This can help many people, such as students, who need to do research reports or have curiosity about a certain topic. Tim Berners-Lee is an innovator and has helped the world change mostly in the best way possible. Without his creation we would not have captured so many criminals or terrorists. In conclusion Tim Berners-Lee is probably the best innovator in the world. This invention helps the whole world to share ideas or opinions.
