Web Inventor Berners-Lee Wins Big Technology Award http://snipurl.com/5q74
World Wide Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee won one million euros ($1.23 million) on Thursday, the largest single amount of money he has made from an invention that has made many others very rich. Berners-Lee, 48, was named the first winner of the world's largest technology award -- the Millennium Technology Prize -- by the Finnish Technology Award Foundation at a ceremony in the Finnish city of Espoo. Berners-Lee launched the World Wide Web in 1991 and gave the world easy access to information, revolutionizing the way it worked and communicated. (HELSINKI (Reuters) Thu Apr 15, 2004 03:08 AM ET]
