The Web at 30

Happy Birthday World Wide Web!

For someone who has spent the better part of the past 20 years working in web development, this is definitely a day to celebrate. Without the web, I can’t even imagine what my career path would have been.

So how will I celebrate? Well, the usual routine for sure – updating client sites, fine-tuning a theme for a new build, reading posts by other web developers to broaden my skills.

I’ll also be working on curriculum development for the online Web Accessibility course I’m teaching as part of the Accessible Media Production Graduate Certificate at Mohawk. That seems to be the most fitting way to celebrate. A way to pass on my learning to a group of folks keen to make the web more inclusive.

How are you going to celebrate 30 years of the web?
