"History"
- Many versions/sources -- just try searching for "Internet History"
- Major events and trends are still unfolding.

- what is important or relevant
- when/where something was imagined, patented, named, developed, or commercialized
- who was responsible

- The presentation will be mostly linear, but with some foreshadowing, retrospectives, flashforwards and flashbacks.
- There may be too much detail for some of you on some topics, not enough for others? How much practical detail?
