W3C 2011: Select Priorities and Milestones →
As the World Wide Web enters its third decade, it continues to transform human communication, information sharing, commerce, education, and entertainment. Social networking, cloud computing, and the convergence of Web, television, video and online gaming are among the phenomena stretching the Web in exciting new directions. The Web will stretch further as it connects more people and as we connect more devices to it, such as mobile phones, TV, sensors, power grid, and more.
The W3C community is building an Open Web Platform that will enable the Web to grow and foster future innovation. This document presents technology highlights in 2011 for advancing the platform. It also includes the organizational priorities that will enable W3C to better serve its stakeholders and foster participation in W3C work. By focusing on these activities and working with other organizations in the Internet Ecosystem such as ISOC, the IETF, and many other communities, W3C will better fulfill its mission of Web technology stewardship.
