Sir Tim Berners-Lee

HTML no longer fit for purpose - an alternative(?)

HTML has come a long way since its first incarnation by its author Sir Tim Berners-Lee back in 1990. The first generation coding had an elegance and simplicity. But its reworking to meet the demand of publishers now means that it’s not meeting the needs of the majority of its users. Malcolm Davison of writingfortheweb.co.uk suggests that returning to an idea that the inventor first introduced - an editor / browser and preventing direct access to coding would be a more satisfactory way forward.
