Granada The Program - The Net

The clips are from Granada's 'The Program' presented by Tony Wilson as featured on the December 1995 Personal Computer World cover disc. From them you can see what the PC and Mac industy was like some 15+ years ago. If you'd like a copy of the interactive CD, or have information on the TV show the disc was made from I'd love to hear from you!

Video from Cat Lewis and Dan O'Brian helping you get on the Internet featuring technology like 486 and Pentium PCs, 14.4 and V34 28.8 modems, Internet Guides, and Netscape Navigator. She talks about providers and bulletin board systems like U-NET, Demon Internet, Delphi Internet, CompuServe, Apple eWorld and Microsoft Network. Continuing with explaining how e-mail is used and describing how the internet was originally invented in the 60's by the US military to maintain contact in the event of a nuclear war and is a worldwide electronic communication system that spans all continents with 20 million people communicating through their computers and can not be stopped by any one country as if a link is down it finds another way to send your message. Eva Pascoe (of Cyberia Cyber Cafés) then shows you some interesting things to do on the world wide web such as virtual frog dissection, eric cantona, netiquette, rencontres dating and the cyrano server for composing automated messages.
