WHO IS THE AFRICAN FATHER OF THE INTERNET AS REFERRED BY CNN, NY TIMES? by afrinets(m): 12:12pm On Feb 15, 2008 |
A Nigerian in the United States was voted history's greatest scientist (#1) of African TIME: The "Unsung Hero" Behind the Internet The father of lnternet as written by= New York TIME magazine and CNN CNN calls him ''A FATHER OF THE INTERNET'' He speaks: "Who is the Father of the Internet?" is like asking: Who invented the supercomputer that gave rise to the Internet. In reality, no one individual invented the Internet alone. It has many fathers, as well as mothers, uncles, and aunts. It was not even born at one place or time. Instead, it grew organically and incrementally, following trails that are non-intersecting. Take the trail of whom CNN called "A Father of the Internet." He theorized that 65,000 computers around the Earth could forecast the weather. His theoretical supercomputer, with 65,000 nodes, is known today as the Internet. Using 65,000 processors, he invented a formula that inspired the reinvention of the supercomputer as thousands of electronic brains that occupies the space of four tennis courts. Bill Clinton explained, in a televised speech (as president) that the internet father's formula helped give rise to the age of information. Yet his invention is one that, unfortunately, few of us recognize. Certainly, inventions such as this deserve better. After all, can you send your email without computers and the Internet an descent, and the father of lnternet. What is his name, and a link to comfirm his profile and more. lf you kn the answer just type it here in not lmore than 12hrs from now and win N1,000 recharge card of any type! alphahcom247@gmail.com |
