But almost immediately, the inventor of the modern webpage noticed a problem: thousands of people were floating in and out of the famous research institute, many of them temporary hires. "The big challenge for contract programmers was to try to understand the systems, both human and computer, that ran this fantastic playground," Berners-Lee later wrote.
"Much of the crucial information existed only in people's heads. " So in his spare time, he wrote up some software to address this shortfall: a little program he named Enquire.
