Used NCP in the 70’s while at Honeywell. Worked at DEC in the late 80’s when they had the largest private network. It was nothing to chat with folks in Australia, New Zealand, UK, etc.

I think the real jump start was the Work of Tim Berniers-Lee. I always wondered if he had a MAC, because they had search capabilities on MAC’s, but it was limited to one machine. I see that contribution of his to link searches across networks as the big jump in the internet.
