The Internet has no such organization - files are made available at random locations. To search through this chaos, we need smart tools, programs that find resources for us.

Clifford Stoll

When I took office, only high energy physicists had ever heard of what is called the Worldwide Web.... Now even my cat has its own page.

Bill Clinton

The Internet is like alcohol in some sense. It accentuates what you would do anyway. If you want to be a loner, you can be more alone. If you want to connect, it makes it easier to connect.

Esther Dyson

The trouble with the Internet is that it's replacing masturbation as a leisure activity.

Patrick Murray

What is a Web year now, about three months? And when people can browse around, discover new things, and download them fast, when we all have agents - then Web years could slip by before human beings can notice.

Tim Berners lee

The Internet treats censorship as a malfunction and routes around it.

John Perry Barlow

On the Internet, inside information is currency, and there will always be counterfeiters among us.

Be an explorer...read, surf the internet, visit customers, enjoy arts, watch children play...do anything to prevent yourself from becoming a prisoner of your knowledge, experience, and current view of the world.

Charles Thompson

Internet mailing lists are like Fox television shows. They have really cool previews, and they get you all excited about them, but they just don't live up to their promises.

John Dobbin

We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.

The Internet provides a delivery system for pathological states of mind.

Phillip Adams

No matter how much Bill Gates may claim otherwise, he missed the Internet, like a barreling freight train that he didn't hear or see coming.

Jim Clark

I can't go on anymore bad dates. I would rather be home alone than out with some guy who sells socks on the internet.

Cynthia Nixon

There are 5,000 great people for every jerk on Usenet. But that still is a lot of jerks. Proceed with caution and eyes wide open.

Don Rittner

Internet: absolute communication, absolute isolation.

Paul Carvel

I've just found out there are pages on the internet dedicated to whether I'm gay or not.

Ralph Lauren

The 'Net is a waste of time, and that's exactly what's right about it.

I love acting but I don't like all of the other stuff associated with it. The interest in celebrities, the press, the Internet, when your identity becomes mixed up in the way people are preceving you.

Nicole Kidman

The internet is a great way to get on the net.

Bob Dole

If you use the original World Wide Web program, you never see a URL or have to deal with HTML. That was a surprise to me - that people were prepared to painstakingly write HTML.

Tim Berners lee

On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.

Peter Steiner

Sooner or later the Internet will become profitable. It's an old story played before by canals, railroads and automobiles.

Paul A. Samuelson

Few influential people involved with the Internet claim that it is a good in and of itself. It is a powerful tool for solving social problems, just as it is a tool for making money, finding lost relatives, receiving medical advice, or, come to that, trading instructions for making bombs.

Esther Dyson

There are two things in particular that it [the computer industry] failed to foresee: one was the coming of the Internet(...); the other was the fact that the century would end.

Douglas Adams

The Internet continued to attract the most desirable customer.

John Rittenhouse

We are excited about Internet access in general. With better access to the Internet, people do more searches.

Larry Page

She read some things on the Internet and that kind of helped her, fired her up. She just read some things about the race that were an incentive for her.

Tom Snyder

We don't want MCI to have control of the Internet infrastructure.

Mark Richardson

This is not so much about being anti-competitive as anti-consumer. It about the Internet and has implications for e-commerce overall. The Internet is about freedom of information, to go out, search and find information.

Dan Neary

The basic question: is this an Internet stock or a retailer?

Martin Pyykkonen

We have been on Capitol Hill, sharing our concerns regarding whether we will get equal treatment for our content from any competitor that has both cable and internet pipeline into the home.

Chris Castro

Internet gambling is an illegal and destructive activity. People have bought into the lie that because it is done in the privacy of their own home, it is acceptable. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Lanier Swann

Changing to the Internet is the hardest thing - you can't believe people's resistance.

I've been dealing with it like crazy. It's a classic example of how chaos can be created by bad information being shared around on the Internet, all those chat rooms.

Overall, what we have done in regulating the internet is consistent with international practice.

Liu Zhengrong

Information on the Internet is subject to the same rules and regulations as conversation at a bar.

William Donahue

Nobody's talking about an IPO [for BT's Internet business].

Raymond Hill

Mark has discussed mobility. But mobility and programming for the Internet are one in the same.

Shane Robison

You're going to see a whole new wave of innovation that will come from just programming to the Internet.

Sir Richard Branson

They saw the Internet as a powerful tool that enhanced their decision-making ability.

Sarah Bass

With your video in the Internet Archive, you feel that you're leaving something for the future.

The Internet sector is moving quickly, and a fund like this is appropriate.

Robert Zidar

We're interested in knowing, ... how much each one of you uses the Internet. How much time do you spend on it?

Our vision is this: In the future, companies won't buy computers. They'll buy connectivity to the Internet the way you go to the electric company to get electricity.

Mark Jarvis

Internet copyright infringement activities have been increasingly rampant.

Yan Xiaohong

This issue of the Internet or Internet-based services being less reliable is disappearing. We did not find that this was a barrier to adoption of IP services.

Don Ryan

The Internet as a platform is ubiquitous.

Shane Robison

The Internet, cable TV, and computer games, account for much more of the trend away from books.

Jeff Abraham

We're really at the start of the Internet commerce curve. It's a market we think we will dominate as we go forward. As more people use the Web, more people will be driven to our database.

Mark Jarvis

The Internet has allowed people to invade our own homes, to have conversations with our children in the privacy of our own homes without us ever knowing about it.

Kevin O'connor

Internet Explorer has to be the default browser, ... To the extent that we can promote Netscape within the AOL environment, it has to be in a low-profile area.

David Colburn

There's no reason to throw out copyrights just because you're on the Internet, ... Deal with it.

James Grady

Anyone in this market needs to be careful. The Internet is a place where choices change quickly. UPS has a good lead, but it can't take it for granted.

Clay Ryder

What we do see as key are Microsoft's improving business fundamentals, specifically ... Windows 2000 and the Internet.

Art Brodsky

In terms of how information is collected and used on the Internet, ... to allow detailed secret profiles to be created is disastrous.

Chinese Internet users tend to focus on online games and spend a lot less on e-commerce.

Frank Shi

The Internet is an agreement to use a small number of communications protocols, and it needs almost no governance at all.

Diane Robina

The investor focus has turned back to eyeballs and the value of traffic on the Internet, especially value you can derive from advertising.

Marianne Wolk

Any life in transition, in a positive transition, that seems to be when people make the Internet their own.

Marci Hansen

There's so much information available for women in the last 10 to 15 years, and it's out there now in magazines, on TV and the Internet.

Jo Parrish

The Internet changes everything. I now estimate what I'll need and then double it. More copper, more fiber, higher-density switches.

Mick Laver

A lot of girls buy on the Internet. They'll get on the Internet and find you, and they will call you from out of state. They usually know what they're after when they call.

Pat Wilders

Dell is clearly a PC company, but increasingly as we go forward, we are more and more of an Internet company. The Internet is part of everything in the way we do business with our customers.

Deborah Levine

Someone who knows the Internet but doesn't have industry knowledge is going to have trouble.

Tiffany Young

It was a mixed day for the Internet on Capital Hill.

Alan Davidson

The Internet is a wonderful tool, but it is also used illegally.

Mike Parsons

The Internet is no longer the kind of thing where only six guys in the world can build it. Now, you can write a couple of checks and get one of your own.

Paul Vixie

One of the unfortunate things about the Internet is it has made everyone gratification-happy instantaneously. But we are not going to be able to get this done in Internet time.

Doug Lewis

It's as if our electric grid didn't even have fences around it. This is disgraceful what we do, and what we don't do, to protect the Internet.

Paul Vixie

There's so many groups, you don't have to look too far on the Internet to find them.

Robert Siegel

The Internet allows data to just flow from the retailer to the supplier system.

Sharon Gardner

No one can say this is a niche genre because my mom is emailing me (Internet) videos, as is my nephew.

Andy Cohen

You're adding more complex software, more hardware devices, home-based Internet applications. These things interact and they don't always work together. That's going to make this a bigger problem.

In increasing numbers we see audiences turning toward the broadband Internet as an exciting new channel through which they can access entertainment.

Mel Harris

I'm convinced over time, all voice communication will migrate to the Internet.

Niklas Zennstrom

Nelly Estrada

Well all the big companies are really panicked by the internet thing and all that, and sales went down, although sales have gone up again in this country a bit and also the big companies, because they're so big, they need big sales really so they're not really interested.

Jack Bruce

We host Web pages?businesses, ... We have to stay up. We go down, and so does 2 percent of the Internet.

Michael Barnett

Because the proposed measures go much further than the current practices, especially for the internet data, it is clear that there will be a lot of investment for the industry to make.

Thierry Dieu

The Internet lets us do that for first time in the history of computers. It lets us, in effect, make them into one big parallel supercomputer.

David Anderson

People were doing business with one another through the Internet already, through bulletin boards. But on the Web, we could make it interactive, we could create an auction, we could create a real marketplace. And that's really what triggered my imagination, if you will, and that's what I did.

Pierre Omidyar

The assumption is that you're comfortable with the Internet and e-mail already.

Steve Swasey

People have experience with the real world. For most people, the Internet feels insubstantial.

Stefan Rating

Even if he had deleted his Internet search history, the information would still have been there.

John Colbert

Tom Pappas

The internet has exacerbated the problem enormously because it's given everybody the potential to re-sell tickets.

Jonathan Brown

I'd hesitate to characterize this is as comparable to what was going on in the late 1990s. Not every Internet stock is doing well.

Media companies need to look more to the Internet but the question is how much you pay for that?

Henry Berghoef

We can then deliver them to all platforms, TV, internet and mobile.

Tim Sloane

I'm always searching for Internet hotspots. I like to have the Net at my fingertips wherever I go.

Paul Aiken

We don't think there's any reliable age verification for Internet purchases.

Bill Phelps

[The ruling] does chill linking and, in the long run, it chills the Internet. Certainly linking will become a key issue for an appeal now.

New players will exploit the disruptive power of the internet and change the form and function of television forever.

William Cooper

We want to make sure the Internet is secure.

Jenny Emanuel

Essentially Phone.com is like the Netscape of the Internet.

Mark Mckechnie

Dan Langan

If you look at the overall Internet, there is a mix of operating systems.

Dan Kuznetsky

That could be a real wave of traffic that the Internet has not dealt with.

Alan Paller

People for too long thought they were anonymous on the Internet. People now realize they're not.

Andrew Serwin

There are great ideas and great people who are coming into the Internet space.

Jodie Bernstein

He navigates the Internet, I navigate boats. But evidently he's able to do it.

Marcello Lippi

The Internet certainly facilitated recruiting becoming something of a national phenomenon.

Bobby Burton

There has been conflict with ICANN about who should govern the Internet. We wouldn't be surprised if the Internet became fragmented, because some areas of the world really don't feel included.

Geir Rasmussen

I find it very strange that a country that so much believes in freedom of expression has a problem with (Internet gambling).

Peter Marcus

I think he went on the Internet and found out more about him. I believe he did his research.

Verron Haynes

I don't know how a law will control Internet gambling. If you bring it to America and have regulation, you may be better off.

Arnie Wexler

At airports, it's reached the point (that wireless Internet) has become an expected service.

Dan Weber

It's become a huge Internet movement. On the flip side of that, because these people have been so aggressive and so active on the Internet, that has also mobilized those who feel differently [than the book challengers do].

Pat Scales

Barns are for sale on the Internet. The wood is sought after now.

Lu Donnelly

It's our No. 1 complaint. The Internet and e-mail are giving these people new lead-in ways to address people.

John Mack

E-mail is one of the fast-growing areas in Internet advertising and marketing.

Christopher Todd

I think the people at Dow would have to acknowledge that there is something to the Internet.

Hermann Havermann

My husband got in five votes on the phone. I got one on the Internet.

John O'hurley

We give you access to the real Internet. Most phone browsers don't do that. They give you access to WAP.

Aside from a few activists, most people don't really care about censorship. My impression is that the blocks and filters are seen as an annoyance by most Chinese internet users, not as a huge problem.
