The Internet in 1994

By Mike Blackburn in Internet on Thursday, April 23, 2009 @ 16:09


I've just come across this 1994 promotional video about the internet from The Digital Equipment Corporation.

I was at University in 1994 and remember using the internet to download games like the Prince of Persia. Looking back I remember it (the internet) being very textual but to be honest because of the gradual evolution of things I'd forgotten quite how different it was.

The video talks about transacting business online; but could you ever have thought you might be buying lightbulbs or getting involved in ebay type auctions?  It really is amazing how the web has developed and I'm personally looking forward to the next 15 years of progress - who knows where we'll be then: high def real time video communication?
