Came across these obnoxious photos of Vint Cerf and Tim Berners-Lee. Neither the web nor the internet were "invented" by them, it's such an absurd statement to make. Yes they were were pivotal people who have done a lot to make the networked world we live in, but to continue to propagate this "Great man theory" is just so absurd...
