An interesting article from Globetechnology: Gore to get lifetime award for Internet
Al Gore may have been lampooned for taking credit in the Internet’s development, but organizers of the Webby Awards for on-line achievements don’t find it funny at all. In part to “set the record straight,” they will give Mr. Gore a lifetime achievement award for three decades of contributions to the Internet, said Tiffany Shlain, the awards’ founder and chairwoman.
So is Al Gore indeed going to get a Webby for inventing the internet? This is one shocking update I’d like to keep track of.
