The 16th International World Wide Web conference was held at Banff, Alberta Canada from May 8 to 12th this year.
The web has revolutionalized the way information flows, the way people learn, the way people do their everyday things, the way people socialize and a zillion other things. In short, it has revolutionized the way we live.
And each year the www conference sets the stage to accelerate this revolution in the years to come.
Here are a few papers that I'd like to read up in the limited time I have.
