Form instead of from. A nonsensical sentence in the middle. The weird phrasing at the end. And the fact that the // comes AFTER the http.

Wow.

Furthermore, the www is not a requirement (see for yourself you can go to engadget.com). Also. it's up to the web site owner to have the www or not. In fact they can make it w.engadget.com or wen.engadget.com or just plain engadget.com.

Most websites having the www is not Tim's fault it's the fault of web site operators .. you may as well blame him for having to type .com at the end .. something he had nothing to do with.]]>Oct 16th 2009 8:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/

IIRC, the reason the IETF had DNS put the big end last is that people were accustomed to writing single-segment hostnames, and felt that sticking something on the end to be more specific made more sense. It was a relatively late decision, though; an earlier draft had been big-end-first, and the UK's academic network, JANET, adopted that, which led to no end of troubles. (Quick, is "cs.mit.edu" the computer science department at MIT, or a machine named "edu" in a domain named "mit", in Czechoslovakia?)]]>Oct 16th 2009 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/

That is really useful! I always try to put my cursor in between the "www." and the ".com" so i dont have to type the whole thing out manually. This will save me tons of time!

It's amazing how little people know about computers. Once, I was helping someone with their computer, and I put shortcuts in their Bookmark Bar... for their webmail, banks, local news sites, etc. Now they could visit all their favorite sites with just one click. They didn't even know how to use regular bookmarks either!]]>Oct 15th 2009 11:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/Oct 15th 2009 11:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/Oct 16th 2009 1:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/15/world-wide-web-creator-sorry-for-the-and-other-things-that/
