The World Wide Web History Project is a collaborative effort to record
and publish the history of the World Wide Web and its roots in
hypermedia and networking. Its founding principle is to work together in
as open and cooperative a manner as possible in producing a definitive
history and historical archive of the Web. Explicit goals are to provide
accurate and balanced history with input from as many sources as
possible and maximum access to the results worldwide. The Project is
currently taking steps to incorporate as a non-profit organization.
To date the Project has used two primary research methods: personal
recollections, either taken down in interviews or recorded on their own
time by sources, and archival research. We have been videotaping nearly
all interviews in the new digital video (DVC) format. Besides offering
CD-quality sound and near-broadcast quality video, this format makes it
easy to output still shots from video.
