How DEC scientists imagined the Internet in 1968 -- a year before the Internet

Maybe it seems obvious, but I liked how the paper predicted that, "people with whom one interacts most strongly will be selected more by commonality of interests and goals than by accidents of proximity."

Also, it's interesting that the phrase on-line was being used even in 1968.

There's a colorful article on Gizmodo here about what the paper got right and what it got wrong:
