I just finished reading the book "The Dream Machine: J.C.R. Licklider and the Revolution That Made Computing Personal". Very highly recommended for anyone interested in the early days of computing and the internet and the people that helped make it happen.
- throw32993 6y agoAnother good book is 'The Friendly Orange Glow: The Untold Story of the PLATO System and the Dawn of Cyberculture' by Brian Dear. It dates (1960s, 1970s) even before the Licklider book I think. Read the blurb, sounds amazing the things they had back then.
