a little bit more about Douglas Engelbart
a little bit more about Douglas Engelbart. there is a lot of contribution from this man. if we can work with computers, network and internet, we need to include him in our “thank you”.
this video show his famous demonstration of NLS, the oNLine System. it includes a lot of technologies that we use today. most interesting part…it held on 1968. 
you can see more about this demo session in the stanford page.
nice article: the guy that imagine the internet
i really like to read the stories about the history of computers. i read this nice article about Doug Engelbart. it brings attention his contribution for what would be the network and internet in the future. it also mentions that it’s sad that he called the inventor of mouse only. actually he contribute much more for the computer world. i agree.
unfortunately it’s in portuguese. so, if you want read it you can use an translator tool.
following the news
in my former blog I had a category called “news”. in this category , i used to talk about some news related to technology. in this new site, i’m not using this category to talk about the news about technology. at least, not with the same frequency. some people are asking where the news are. the answer is at twitter or at google+.
so, if you want to follow some news related to technology, follow me at twitter or google+.
Bob did an outsourcing of his own work to china. its simple: the company was paying his salary and he was doing the outsourcing of his work to slaves at china (obviously for a smaller value).
