History of the Internet

Here's and interesting (short) animated documentary on the history of the internet.

For most geeks among us this is common knowledge, but it's a good video to get those among us who don't know much about the origins of the internet up to speed :-)

I think this would have been useful as an instructional video at the beginning of our class on business networking (a class for MBA student to understand the IT back end of computer networking. It can be used both as an icebreaker and an introduction to the history and concepts before getting into the nitty-gritty of networks and network management.
