When Kline is about to type the letter G, the huge computer crashed! And the rest was history. He first typed characters L and O and Duvall acknowledged that he had gotten it. Bill Duvall was in SRI and Kline is talking to him over the telephone, while typing the word. A night of October 29, 1969, when they initiated the test using an ARPANET connection. In fact, the actual word sent was 'LO' and it was supposed to be the word "login." It was sent by Charley Kline from a room-sized computer at UCLA to another computer at Stanford Research Institute in Menlo Park. Ever wondered how the internet started? Or at least did it ever crossed your mind what is the first message that was sent over the internet? If that's so, you may also be thinking, "the first message in the history of the internet must be a command, like when they made the first telephone call." Well, that is definitely not the case for this one.ĭid you know that the first message sent over the internet is composed of only TWO letters? Yes, you read that right. Our technology continues to develop and more messaging apps are popping out like a mushroom. Especially in ways on how we communicate with each other. Our life has gotten a lot easier and comfortable compared to the past.
