Sir Tim Berners-Lee

This is the man who invented the World Wide Web - and refused to take a penny for his invention. Thanks to him we are here in touch with each other. He believed we all had the right to access to the Internet without copyright charges. He is a saint of the cyber era. What a guy!

If he had taken a cut of his invention and its uses, he would be many times richer than Bill Gates, or anyone else on the planet.

Three cheers for Sir Tim!
