Why use the Web?

  • It's becoming ubiquitous, as the growth stats will tell you (see log plot, all methods, or all but ftp)
  • It's an easy way to distribute lots of information including sounds and animations, for example this sound and this movie
  • It's perfect for Computer Vision and Robotics: supports images, movies, PostScript Tech Reports, and arbitrary shell scripts
  • It can help you get funding
  • ARPA says so!
