"Imagine the year is 1968: mainframes rule the roost, the concepts of personal computers and collaborative systems are non-existent, and people's conception of the Human Computer Interface are punch cards and teletypes," writes Brad Neuberg.
At that point Doug Engelbart gave The Mother of All Demos, showing, for the first time, mice, windows, hypertext, email and other stuff that is now what we think of as personal computing. It was called NLS, for oNLine System, and later, Augment.
Today I start a new project with Douglas Engelbart, Eugene Kim, and Johnathan Cheyer, named Hyperscope; I'm deeply honored and humbled to be a member of this team. Hyperscope is a National Science Foundation funded project to rebuild portions of Douglas Engelbart's groundbreaking NLS system on the web.
