John Nack on the “History of the Internet”

March 9th, 2010

The blog post isn´t really new, but just found some really nice words on the “History of the Internet” on the blog of John Nack — Thanks

Melih Bilgil’s The History of the Internet tells, well, you know, using minimal lines but loads of attention to detail. (The fly-over of Cuba is terrific.) Adobe designer Ethan Eismann writes, “My new personal mission in life is to bring this level or higher of engaging instruction to an Adobe welcome screen near you.”
