Tim Berners-Lee developed the web while working at Cern
The world wide web is "still in its infancy", the web's inventor Sir Tim Berners-Lee has told BBC News.
He was speaking ahead of the 15th anniversary of the day the web's code was put into the public domain by Cern, the lab where the web was developed.
The future web will put "all the data in the world" at the fingertips of every user, Sir Tim said.
"The web has been a tremendous tool for people to do a lot of good even though you can find bad stuff out there."
