[public-webhistory] <none>

Hello All,

As I make this post to W3C Web History Community Group but still find its
status "Pending" then I decide to send it to public-webhistory@w3c.org:


What is it about when we type “www” before “gutenberg”? The first is about
a contemporary information and communication technology manifested by the
internet; while the latter reminds us about a printing technology –as
something coming from 15 century (for a reference to “Gutenberg”
http://newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Johannes_Gutenberg/).Michael Hart
himself did not mention about the origin of the name usage –“gutenberg”– at
least in his presentation on the history and philosophy of Project
Gutenberg (http://gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:The_History_and_
Philosophy_of_Project_Gutenberg_by_Michael_Hart/).

On both we may talk about text productions. Thus we find www.gutenberg.org as
a historical situation of technologies. What should we name it…? — could we
say about a poetry on technologies for the allusions it made…?


Regard,

(Note: there is a "cc" to Project Gutenberg Library Archive Foundation.)
