Imagine if the Internet was available only on the West Coast of America. And only in four cities.
Before the Internet, there was ARPANET. A forerunner of the modern Internet. It Advanced Research Projects Agency Network 1969 was born and initially connected only four areas: University of Californias in Santa Barbara, the Stanford Research Institute, the Network Measurement Center of UCLA and University of Utah.
ARPANET was the first packet switching network work and grew over the years to connect more universities and cities outside of California and Utah until it was disconnected in 1990.
