Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday to the Internet who is 45 and to Me who is 17...We finally have something in common.

 

October 29, if you haven’t marked it up in your calendar, is the International Internet Day, which has been famously celebrated since 2005. There haven’t been too many celebrations since it was first established, but that doesn’t mean that there’s any reason to disregard the event.

 

Back in 1969, on October 29, the very first electronic message was sent from a computer in the science department at UCLA to another computer at the Stanford Research Institute. The transmission wasn’t an extremely complicated one, but simply told the recipient to login to SRI. Well, out of the “login” word, only the first two letters were actually sent before the system crashed. The full login took place without a hitch about an hour later.
