O’Regan, G., Chapter 6- The internet Revolution. In a Brief History of Computing



O’Regan, G., Chapter 6- The internet Revolution. In a Brief History of Computing

For those computer scientists mentioned (6.2), do you think their dreams were as extensive as our networks of computers are now? What makes you think so?

If the government did not release development of the Internet into the public’s hands, do you think there would be as equivalent to the Internet we use now? Based on the reading (basic elements), how do you think it would differ if you think so?

(Choose either one) The invention of the worldwide web was announced in 1991. It has been roughly 21 years since that announcement, what do you think could happen in the next 21 years with the Internet?

(Choose either one)“The web is a space and not a physical thing”. Based on this fact, what other ‘things’ could become a space, rather a physical thing?
