The Internet turns 40 years old today

"By the late 1960s computers were being used by NASA and other government agencies.

Then on September 2nd 1969, in a lab at the University of California, Los Angeles, two computers passed test data through a 15-foot gray cable.

Stanford Research Institute joined the fledging ARPANET network a month later; UC Santa Barbara and the University of Utah joined by year's end, and the internet was born. "

And to think, I've only been on the internet since 1989
