Regarding internet history -- the origin & naming of the "World Wide Web" itself 20+ years ago (1990 proposal) -- Sir Tim Berners-Lee is a UU: The World Wide Web and the "Web of Life" (our UU Principle #7). For a better understanding of internet milestones over the past 40+ years, technologies, applications and issues, take Steve's OLLI Course: Evolution of the Internet or Community Lecture: Internet Issues.
