The Internet At 35

Anonymous writes "CNN has a story on the 35th anniversary of the Internet, overviewing its past and the future. According to the article the history began on 'September 2, 1969, as bits of meaningless test data flowed silently between the two computers.' So, happy birthday, the Internet!"

It is FUNNY that Al Gore claimed that he "took the initiative in creating the Internet" ... the video is there if you watch & listen to the entire interview at time stamp ~ 0:50

" I took the initiative in creating the Internet," Al Gore preposterously claimed (time stamp ~ 0:50) on the March 9, 1999 Late Edition/PrimeTime, but that didn't faze CNN's Wolf Blitzer who just kept tossing softball questions.
