Time for a little fun! You may have heard the term “infographic” being bandied about. It refers to a collection of facts on a topic that are presented in place of or in conjunction with the facts being discussed.
While noodling around on the interwebs the other night, I ran across this one on the history of the Internet. I looked real hard, but I could find no mention of Al Gore….
At any rate, I hope that you enjoy it!

Very cool infographic, I knew some of the info, but I’d never heard of JCR Licklider before. Being British, I was a bit disappointed not to see Tim Berners Lee mentioned…

Thanks for the infographic. Maybe a correction? Ethernet was invented on May 22, 1973 in a memo I wrote at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center. Dave Boggs and I built the first one there that same year. Ethernet is packet plumbing for the Internet.
Rob, thanks for commenting! I missed seeing Tim Berners Lee as well, but I am assuming that the authors were more focused on the Internet versus the World Wide Web.
Dr. Metcalfe, I am honored that you would post a comment on my blog!!! Thanks for your contribution to what has turned out to be the way that I make my living these days. Without the Internet we’d have no WWW, and without that there would be no Facebook, and with out that I wouldn’t be teaching real estate agents in California how to make a living by using artfully arranged 1’s and 0’s! Hopefully the authors of the Infographic will see this comment stream and make the necessary corrections!
