Introduction |
|
Some books just don't fit cleanly into any category that would make sense to webmasters and web designers since they aren't 'howto' books or books to give you ideas about designing websites - yet make interesting reading for that same target group So here you'll find some 'Other books' that I found interesting, and you might, too. |

Weaving the Web: The Original Design and Ultimate Destiny of the World Wide Web by Its Inventor
|
||
Background
|
Tim Berners-Lee is a visionary of the kind that doesn't just imagine how things could be, but sets
about to make it happen, and motivate other people to help making it happen. As most of you who read this will know, he is the inventor
of the World Wide Web, and now the director of the W3C. The history of how the
WWW came to be, and what it could (or should) become, makes fascinating reading. I read the book
in one sitting.

The Victorian Internet: The Remarkable Story of the Telegraph and the Nineteenth Century's On-Line Pioneers
|
||
Background
|
The invention that made almost instant mass communications possible, caused whole new types of
businesses to be invented, enormous social impact, economic boom and bust. Internet and dotcoms? No, the telegraph, way back in the 1800's.
There were even a few "Online romances" and marriages connected with the telegraph. Tom Standage tells you all about it and draws parallels
with the present-day Internet. Required reading for every Internet professional.
