This was supposedly supposed to be posted during week two, but I only heard of it during the week 3 class, so now I am in week 4, and find myself posting it. Here goes!
The history of the internet can be traced to the late 1950s and our Soviet friends' launch of The Sputnik. My friend Dr Y. Tube has provided a video to further elaborate upon this topic, enjoy:

The history of computing is a long, detailed, and very interesting one I'm sure. So interesting infact, that a Computer History Museum exists in a town called Mountain View. While I wasn't personally able to visit this museum over the past week, I was able to find the visual recordings of a lady who did. Enjoy:

I'm hoping these two videos proved insightful, thanks!
