The Internet is 40 years old. 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. The network became known as ARPANET. Stanford Research Institute joined the network a month later followed by UC Santa Barbara and the University of Utah by year’s end, and the Internet was born.
