Open Web

The Open Web movement asserts a special role for public, cooperative, and standard World Wide Web communications; it opposes private, exclusive, proprietary Web solutions.

Computer scientist Tantek Çelik^[1] gives three aspects of the Open Web:

publish content and applications on the web in open standards
code and implement the web standards depend on
access and use content / code / web-apps / implementations

The Open Web standard is the Open Web Platform
The Mozilla Foundation is a prominent advocate of the Open Web.
Open Source facilitates the Open Web, and benefits from it.
Open access (publishing) shares a similar philosophy to the Open Web, focused on scholarly articles.
Creative Commons develops legal concepts related to the Open Web.
