Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, grew up surrounded by ideas about computing. His father, Conway Berners-Lee, worked on one of the first commercial computers, the Ferranti Mark 1, and was fascinated by how the brain works—often imagining what computers could eventually do.

Fast forward to today: Solid, a project led by Tim, is a platform that gives people control over their own data, like neurons that securely store information. Meanwhile, Nostr is a decentralized protocol that transmits messages across the web, acting like synapses between systems.

By combining Solid’s secure storage with Nostr’s decentralized messaging, we could create a more interconnected system—one where data flows in a way that mirrors the brain, offering a more flexible and user-controlled web.
