網路發明者Berners-Lee：網址中加上兩道反斜線（//）是多餘的
網路發明人：網址//實無必要

發明全球資訊網的英國科學家伯納斯‧李（Tim Berners-Lee）最近承認，當初他決定在網址格式中加上兩道反斜線（//），實在是錯誤之舉，如果能夠重來一次，他一定會把反斜線省略。
伯納斯─李上周在華府的芬蘭大使館出席芬蘭「科技學院基金會」主辦的研討會，討論科技發展的未來，首度表示網址的「//」根本沒有意義且沒必要。
伯納斯李現年五十四歲，目前是非營利組織全球資訊網協會理事長，該組織主要任務是監督網路的持續發展。
伯納斯─李指出，如果人們不必鍵入這兩道反斜線，這些年可以省下很多紙張，更不用提在瀏覽器的網址列鍵入反斜線所耗損的人力與時間。他並稱，近卅年前他在麻省理工學院開始設計網際網路時，並未能預測到其發明對世人造成的影響。
WWW發明人承認//的確畫蛇添足http://tw.news.yahoo.com/article/url/d/a/091015/1/1t0ui.html
發明全球資訊網路WWW的英國發明家「柏納斯」承認，當初在網址前面加上雙斜線實在有欠考慮。
「柏納斯」大約三十年前想出了利用網路傳送資訊的方法。他說，當時沒想那麼多，也沒想到網路會這麼普遍。只想到要用個符號通知電腦接下來鍵入的是網址，所以想到用斜線這個不常用的標點。
他說，現在想想這兩條線一點用都沒有。聽廣播，聽到主持人報網址都得先說，斜線、斜線，他就難過。「柏納斯」說，當初要是沒加這兩條斜線不知道可以節省多少人力，少砍多少樹，對環境有多大的幫助。
Web creator Berners-Lee: “Sorry about those slashes!”
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web, but says he got it wrong when he put the // in front of the ‘www’.

To the estimated 1.67 billion users of the Web, Tim Berners-Lee would like to say “Sorry” for creating the double-slash which precedes the www in each Web page’s address.
Berners-Lee – now officially ‘Sir Tim’ since being knighted in 2004 for pretty much creating the Internet (and not making a cent out of it) – admitted at a US technology conference yesterday that the two slashes are unnecessary and were “a mistake”.
“Really, if you think about it, (the Web address) doesn’t need the //. I could have designed it not to have the //”. But, he says, “it seemed like a good idea at the time”.
Web browsers have long since side-stepped the double slash, automatically assuming the http:// component when the user enters a Web address.
Prior to the conference, Berners-Lee explained to The New York Times that he automatically chose the // characters when working on what became the Web in the late 1980s, as they were a convention in computer programming at the time.
“When I designed the URL, this thing which starts http://, the slash-slash was to indicate that we are actually starting at the top, not starting down at the next slash” Berners-Lee explains.
The slashes where also to separate the name of the protocol, such as HTTP or FTP, from the rest of the address. However, in the end only the colon was necessary. “With the colon in there as well, it turns out people never use the slash-slash without the http, colon.”
