Objective
European citizens today are not "Optimally Connected Anywhere, Anytime" to the Web. A large majority of European Web users access the Web on fixed-line networks only. Use of mobile networks for accessing the Web has not yet become as widespread in Europe as in other regions of the world (e.g. Japan), because of usability, interoperability and integration problems of the European mobile Web platform.
3GWeb aims to significantly improve the usability, interoperability and integration of European mobile Web technology. The project is lead by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) which was founded by the Web's inventor, Tim Berners-Lee. W3C has been active in the area of mobile Web standards for several years.
3GWeb is integrated with W3C's "Mobile Web Initiative" (MWI), aiming at making the Web ready for next-generation mobile and wireless networks. MWI includes European and international key players in the mobile production chain, such as authoring tool vendors, content providers, handset manufacturers, browser vendors and mobile operators.
3GWeb will conduct European dissemination activities on W3C's "Mobile Web Initiative", including communication activities, training of content providers on MWI-developed "Mobile Web Best Practices", the development of quality-assurance support under the umbrella of an MWI-developed "MobileOK" trust-mark and workshops and working groups bringing together Web technologies and designers of mobile and wireless networks beyond 3G.
