Kleinrock and his research team managed to transmit data over
ARPANET, clearing the way for the birth of the Internet, which
came on October 29 of that year. We’ll give 100 Knowledge Points
to the person who can tell us the first word transmitted over
the internet. Each Tuesday, the ITKE team will take you back in
time, as we take a look at the events that have changed
technology history. Have a tip for us? Email email@example.com
