Happy 35th Birthday, Internet!

The Internet’s first baby steps began in Leonard Kleinrock’s UCLA lab 35 years ago today.

The young computer science professor’s team had networked its computer with one at the Stanford Research Institute in Menlo Park. The plan was for UCLA to send the letters “L-O-G” and for SRI to answer back with “I-N.” The system crashed with the message reading just “L-O.”
