More info abou he and his research (in progress still): http://www.veabaro.info/default-e.htm -- ------------------------------------------------- Josep Vives Jounou http://josepvives.cat josep.vives@gmail.com http://www.cibersociedad.net jvives@cibersociedad.net ------------------------------------------------- 2009/7/20 Sam Ladner <samladner@gmail.com>
Hello all,
I have run into this problem, yet again, and am still looking for a solution. I'm writing a (very brief) history of the Internet for an article. I have the following sources, which a) seem outdated and b) not sufficiently scholarly.
Leiner, B. et al. 1997. ""The Past and Future History of the Internet." Communications of the ACM, February 1997. Berners-Lee, Tim. 1998, "The World Wide Web: A Very Short Personal History", Retrieved July 9, 2009, 2009 ( http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/ShortHistory.html). World Wide Web Consortium. 2007, "A Little History of the World Wide Web", Retrieved February 19, 2007 (http://www.w3.org/History.html).
Can anyone point me in the direction of either more recent or more scholarly sources? I wrestle with using Wikipedia (as many have discussed on this list in the past). I would prefer, at the very least, a pre-press paper from a scholar.
Any help much appreciated. s.
