  WEBCAST TODAY: World Wide Web 30th Anniversary Celebrations #web30 @cern @sciencemuseum @w3c @webfoundation #ForTheWeb 

  In 1989 the world’s largest physics laboratory, CERN, was a hive of ideas and information stored on multiple incompatible computers. Sir Tim Berners-Lee envisioned a unifying structure for linking information across different computers, and wrote a proposal in March 1989 called “Information Management: A Proposal“.

  By 1991 this vision of universal connectivity had become the World Wide Web.

  To celebrate 30 years since Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s proposal and to kick-start a series of celebrations worldwide, CERN hosted a 30th Anniversary event in the morning of 12 March 2019 in partnership with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and with the World Wide Web Foundation. Later in the day the Science Museum in London, the home of the original NeXT Computer used by Sir Tim to design the World Wide Web, ran a second event, also in partnership with the World Wide Web Foundation.

  Sir Tim spoke at both events, and both will be restreamed in full today Wednesday 13 March on the Internet Society Livestream Channel, starting at 09:00 EDT (13:00 UTC).

  WEBCAST TODAY: ARPANET: Celebrating 50 Years Since “LO” #AAASMTG @vgcerf #50yearsofARPANET 

  The 2019 American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Annual Meeting was held in Washington, DC earlier in February with the theme ‘Science Transcending Boundaries‘. Attendees celebrated three scientific milestones: 1) 150 years ago Dmitri Mendeleev presented the Periodic Table to the Russian Chemical Society; 2) 50 years ago the first moon walk by Neil Armstrong, made possible by Apollo 11’s successful landing on the moon; and 3) the first ARPANET message was sent from the University of California, Los Angeles to the Stanford Research Institute. This early network became the basis for today’s Internet. In the case of the latter two, not only was a large cake cut and distributed, but also a panel convened of original ARPANET researchers/engineers Vint Cerf, Stephen D. Crocker, Robert E. Kahn, Leonard Kleinrock and David Walden. Today, Wednesday 27 February 2019 at 2pm ET (19:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will restream that panel.

    This was a great moment
    Acts of recognition for a great work are needed to encourage the development of increasingly neutral and inclusive rules.

    In the talk, Dave has difiiculty recalling names of the “kids in Boston’ who came up with TCP/IP for MSDOS. Googling reveals it was Command Technologies, led by Franco Vitaliano, in 1988.

  WEDS: @BBCRadio4 ‏ Aleks in Wonderland: The Story of the Internet – Episode 1 @aleksk 

  On Wednesday August 16 2017 at 08:00 UTC (repeated at 20:30 UTC) BBC Radio 4 will broadcast the first of a 4 part-series Aleks in Wonderland: The Story of the Internet.

  As the BBC puts it:

  In this series Aleks Krotoski unravels the complexity of the internet, meeting the people who really invented it, looking behind the myths and cultural constructs to explain what it actually is and how it came to exist outside of conventional regulation.
  We’ll ask whether the nature of the net itself really is cause for concern – and if so what can be done to reign in the negatives of the internet without restricting the positives?

  This first episode is entitled ‘The International League of Geeky Gentlemen“.

  NEW BOOK: Network Geeks: How They Built the Internet – Brian E. Carpenter #internethistory 

  New Zealander Brian E. Carpenter is a former Chair of the Internet Society’s Board of Trustees (2000-2002). He led the networking group at CERN during the period that Tim Berners-Lee developed the World Wide Web. He is a leading figure in the history and work of the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) and the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). In other words he’s one of those many fathers of the Internet, one who has worked diligently over the years to make it what is today. He has now authored a book describing that process – Network Geeks – How They Built the Internet (Springer, 2013).

  From the blurb:

  Part history, part memoir and part cultural study, Network Geeks charts the creation of the Internet and the establishment of the Internet Engineering Task Force, from the viewpoint of a self-proclaimed geek who witnessed these developments first-hand. With boundless enthusiasm and abundant humour, Brian Carpenter leads the reader on a journey from post-war Britain to post-millennium New Zealand, describing how the Internet grew into today’s ubiquitous, global network, including the genesis of the World-Wide Web in the hotbeds of a particle collider at CERN. Illuminating the science and technology behind the apparent “magic trick” of the Internet, Network Geeks opens a window into the initially bewildering world of the Internet engineering geek. After reading this book, you may wish to join this world yourself

  And Vint Cerf himself says:

  This is a geek page-turner! I learned much about the European side of the Internet’s history that I did not know in detail and a lot about Brian himself, too. I don’t know how he remembered so much in detail!

  The book is available in paperback or kindle editions from AMAZON: http://www.amazon.com/Network-Geeks-They-Built-Internet/dp/1447150244/

  VIDEO: Dave Farber – The Technical and Political Evolution of the Internet #internethistory #fcc 

  On November 18 2009 Professor David J. Farber, now an Internet Society Trustee, gave a talk – The Technical and Political Evolution of the Internet – in the University of Delaware’s ECE Distinguished Lecturers Series. Commencing with a “how did we get here?” potted history, and continuing to prognosticate where we might go next, it is an indispensable overview of the Internet’s development from one of its prime movers. Prof. Farber is known for his ‘Farberisms‘ – mangled metaphors that push his point home. Keep an ear out for those! Video / audio can be downloaded, and it has been posted to YouTube.
