W3C: long term goals


Web for Everyone
  • social value of the Web: human communication, knowledge sharing
  • make these benefits available to all people, whatever their hardware, software, network infrastructure, native language, culture, geographical location, or physical or mental ability
Web on Everything
  • many different devices and even certain domestic appliances can all access the Web
  • make Web access from any kind of device as simple, easy and convenient as Web access from a desktop
Knowledge Base
  • the Web is not merely an immense book where people can search, browse, and view information
  • computers can solve problems that would otherwise be too tedious or complex to solve
Trust and Confidence
  • people must be able to trust other parties who have earned their trust
  • promote technologies that enable a more collaborative environment, a Web where accountability, security, confidence, and confidentiality are all possible
