Launched in 1969 by UCLA researchers, the internet was followed by the first e-mails in 1972, and then by public servers such as AOL and CompuServe in the 1980s. In the infancy of computer networks, overblown predictions and woefully wrong prognostications abounded.i-Quote is one part humour, one part timeline of this cultural phenomenon, and packed full of brilliant banter and one-liners that are sure to entertain and surprise even the most technologically advanced amongst us, such as: Nobody who wasn't a high-energy physicist had even heard of the World Wide Web when I became President. And now even my cat, Socks, has his own page. - Bill Clinton in 1996.
