Whether it be to send an e-mail, ftp a file a server, surf the world wide web, or any of the other wonderful things this invention has allowed to happen. But how many of us know and understand the roots of this world and social changing phenomenon.

This video aims to explain the history and developments that led to our modern Internet, and we think it is pretty nifty.


“History of the Internet” is an animated documentary explaining the inventions from time-sharing to filesharing, from Arpanet to Internet.
The history is told using the PICOL icons on www.picol.org. You can already download a pre-release of all picol icons on http://blog.picol.org/pre-release-picol-icons
