Tim Berners-Lee’s essay is very technical and self-explanatory. It explains the brief history of the World Wide Web, what it is, why it was created, how it works, and etc. “The library of Babel” by Jorge Luis Borges, on the other hand, gives us as a fictional setting that the world is a library made of almost infinite number of hexagonal galleries. Considered the date that this essay was published, this is a very stunning piece of writing that almost foretells a lot of the nature of WWW from the philosophical level. In the essay, people are librarians of this library. They can wander through libraries nearby as galleries are linked with one and another. An essential idea is that everything can be, and has been written on books in uniform formats in this huge library. All the knowledge, history, and rules are made of the very basic elements of letters, periods, and commas in black inks. And everything can be explained through these basic elements. It suggests the nature of the Internet which was created decades after. Everything on the Internet has been transformed into data, zero and one. All the data has been catalogized just like books on shelves. History, experience, and languages are accessible through the Internet although some are more inaccessible than some other high on the shelves. It is definitely a mindblowing essay that answers a lot of questions we as modern people still wonder.
