Computer History
- Computer
Chronicles From Stone to Silicon
"Welcome to Computer Chronicles: From Stone to Silicon. The voyage starts in about 3000 BC, with the invention of
the abacus in ancient China. It proceeds through the development of vacuum tubes, transistors, integrated circuits, microprocessors and countless other inventions until the computer of today." Created by a team of three high school students for 1998 ThinkQuest competition, the site
divides computer history into five annotated timelines.
- Computer Museum History Center
This Internet Timeline begins in 1962, before the word ‘Internet' is invented. The world's 10,000 computers are primitive, although they cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. They have only a few thousand words of magnetic core memory, and programming them is far from
easy. Best clicks are the forty-five year timeline of computer history and the online exhibits devoted to History of the Internet and Evolution of the Microprocessor.
- Triumph of the Nerds
Nerds are not a recent phenomenon. It took many years and many nerds to get where we are
today. Based on the PBS television special, Triumph of the Nerds explores the lives of the young men that created the personal computer revolution and "accidently changed the world." There's a timeline that traverses from abacus to Internet, stats and facts about five favorite nerds, and a fun "Can you Guess the Computer?" Shockwave game that lets you test your nerd quotient.
- The Obsolete Computer Museum
Webmaster Tom Carlson has created an incredible resource for anyone who wants to remember the personal computers of yesteryear. He's collected digital photos, specs and the history of each model, no matter how obscure.
