[ NNSquad ] From my ARPANET archive: Origins of electronic mail / "email"
Origins of electronic mail / "email" http://j.mp/xhR6uk (This message on Google+) - - - While the file: http://lauren.vortex.com/msggroup1.txt (which I've just retrieved from my archive) doesn't directly address the email origins controversy, it does demonstrate the depth of discussions already in progress in 1976. There's actually some pretty interesting historical detail in there. You'll also note some rather familiar looking email addresses, from the era when we typed addresses with "@" but usually displayed them with "at" -- and some sites tended to use all uppercase usernames (and not a domain to be seen!): POSTEL@ISIC FARBER@USC-ISI DCROCKER@USC-ISI Lauren@UCLA-ATS and many more. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org Founder: - Data Wisdom Explorers League: http://www.dwel.org - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - Global Coalition for Transparent Internet Performance: http://www.gctip.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://vortex.com/g+lauren / Twitter: http://vortex.com/t-lauren Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
