Network World is a weekly IT publication that provides news and information to network executives. The company is headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts, United States.
Network World was started in 1986 by parent company International Data Group as a spin-off of Computerworld. In 1995 Network World launched a Web site called Network World Fusion which it renamed NetworkWorld.com in 2005. The site is updated daily with news, features, product reviews and tests, opinions, blogs, videos and podcasts and includes a blog written by columnist Mark Gibbs.
In 2006, Network World diversified, taking over the management of two online-only IDG titles: LinuxWorld, and JavaWorld.
Network World's Events arm holds many conferences and seminars each year, including Demo.
Famous quotes containing the words network and/or world:
“How have I been able to live so long outside Nature without identifying myself with it? Everything lives, moves, everything corresponds; the magnetic rays, emanating either from myself or from others, cross the limitless chain of created things unimpeded; it is a transparent network that covers the world, and its slender threads communicate themselves by degrees to the planets and stars. Captive now upon earth, I commune with the chorus of the stars who share in my joys and sorrows.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
“The world is
not with us enough.
O taste and see”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
