Chapter 1. Introduction to Web Forms

"In the beginning...the earth was without form, and void."

Scientists and science fiction writers have long predicted many of the things now being made possible by web forms. For example, in a 1945 article in The Atlantic Monthly, Vannevar Bush wrote about a hypertext network he dubbed a "Memex." Even at this conceptual stage, the thought of using forms to access data came naturally, particularly in terms of drilling down through vast stores of information: "One might, for example, speak to a microphone, in the manner described in connection with the speech-controlled typewriter, and thus make his selections." How did such a technology come to be in real life?"

""What the world really needs is more love and less paperwork."

"Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed the mountain."

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, and die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
