Sir Tim Berners Lee to apologize for mistakes that have been using the same character was not important in the writing of the web address.It is important characters / / or so-called double backslash (two slashes). Usually written after a colon in front of the http. According to Sir Tim, the character actually has no meaning at all in the name of the site coding.
"If you think a sign of double backslash is not required in the writing of the URL, I could just eliminate these characters in the early history of the creation of www. If I could turn time back, I'll change it," said Sir Tim in a symposium in Washington, DC, as quoted via Australian IT News, Wednesday (14/10/2009).
Sir Tim claimed to have never imagined how the character is actually very annoying lately. Both in terms of writing, pronunciation and printing.
"How difficult it is for us these days to say 'backslash backslash', 'double slash', or 'forward slash'. Even for models with one hand is not easy," said Sir Tim.
Although there are web browsers currently in the initiative led to double backslash after writing www, but Sir Tim still imagine how much ink and space in the finished paper wasted to print only two characters that are not important.
However, Sir Tim was an oversight nonetheless understandable. Because the error is not how much compared to what she had created for the benefit of the people, created the Internet to connect everyone in the world and all the information there. Things you never thought about for 30 years ago, before he created the WWW.
The creation of this character is just a small mistake made by a creator who wants to implement the invention as soon as possible.
