Creative Forces Feature #6: Brewster Kahle
We have a digital pioneer and Internet Hall of Fame inductee walking among us!
Meet Brewster, a Creative Force, tech wizard, the “internet librarian” who co-founded the “Wayback Machine” which has now archived over one trillion websites!
Back in the 90’s, Brewster helped develop the first-ever text search system that let’s people search databases on remote computers. Since day one, he has been guided by this mission: providing universal access to all knowledge for free.
