VIDEO: Dave Farber – The Technical and Political Evolution of the Internet #internethistory #fcc

On November 18 2009 Professor David J. Farber, now an Internet Society Trustee, gave a talk – The Technical and Political Evolution of the Internet – in the University of Delaware’s ECE Distinguished Lecturers Series. Commencing with a “how did we get here?” potted history, and continuing to prognosticate where we might go next, it is an indispensable overview of the Internet’s development from one of its prime movers. Prof. Farber is known for his ‘Farberisms‘ – mangled metaphors that push his point home. Keep an ear out for those! Video / audio can be downloaded, and it has been posted to YouTube.
