I hope we will use the Net to cross barriers and connect cultures.

Any enterprise CEO really ought to be able to ask a question that involves connecting data across the organization, be able to run a company effectively, and especially to be able to respond to unexpected events. Most organizations are missing this ability to connect all the data together.

The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.

It's a new medium, it's a universal medium and it's not itself a medium which inherently makes people do good things, or bad things. It allows people to do what they want to do more efficiently.

The Semantic Web is not a separate Web but an extension of the current one, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.

It’s the whole cat and mouse game between the readers and writers that makes the web work.

Innovation is serendipity, so you don't know what people will make.
