The ceremony was attended by close friends and family. Mike Berners-Lee is an English researcher and writer on carbon footprinting. He is considered an expert on carbon footprints. Berners-Lee is best known for inventing the World Wide Web in There Is No Planet B is a book written by Professor Mike Berners-Lee, who is a lecturer at Lancaster University as well as a consultant focused on sustainability within organisations and yes, he is related to Tim Berners-Lee — his brother, in fact.
Tim Berners Lee is happily married. His wife, Rosemary Leith is a Canadian internet and banking entrepreneur. The couple got married to each other in The wedding took place at Chapel Royal in St. Previously, he was married to the American Computer programmer, Nancy Carlson in Lee is renowned as the inventor of the World Wide Web. His parents were computer scientists and mathematicians.
They built the commercial computer, Ferranti Mark 1. He is the eldest child of them. The World Wide Web is still to this day, one of the most revolutionary discoveries ever known to mankind. Little did they know that their son was set to change the shape of the entire planet 33 years later.
It was no surprise that his love for all things computing and science shone through at an early age. However, it seems that it was quite the contrary. Tim was actually an avid train-spotter as a child, and claims that he learnt all about electronics from tinkering around with his very own model railway. Everyone has a different success story. Bill Gates invented Microsoft and is now — statistically — the richest man on Earth.
Lord Alan Sugar quit school at 16, sold car antennas out the back of a van and has now built up some of the most booming businesses the world has to offer. Mark Zuckerberg made a social media site for his Harvard pals and wound up with a net worth of But money was never something that crossed the incredible mind of Berners-Lee.
Because someone of his stature and intelligence with so much credit to his name would usually be worth much more. Not to us of course. A lot of people would be shocked at how many others have never actually heard his name said out loud. When Berners-Lee featured in the Summer Olympics opening ceremony in London, he received almighty cheers and support. But it was the first time the majority of us had ever seen the face of the man behind the internet. Something that we use every day of our lives now.
But he is someone who has never craved the spotlight, never made himself known in the public eye and someone who prefers to keep himself to himself. Because he wants to. It all really started when Tim graduated with a first-class degree in physics from The Queens College at Oxford University, and began working as an engineer at a telecommunications company in Dorset.
This research organisation operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world, and it resides on the border of France and Switzerland in Geneva.
The next step was to write his proposal; which he did, in and redistributed in It was then accepted by his manager, Mike Sendall who helped him to get it off the ground — so on behalf of the entire planet, thanks, Mike! What followed? The first design of the first web browser in history — a prototype which was made in the space of a few months.
