“This Internet thing is going to be big!”

Ed Lazowska, now and then ...

The first mention of the word “Internet” on Seattle’s KING-5 News was a 1994 interview with UW CSE’s Ed Lazowska.  Recently, KING-5 News anchor Allen Schauffler compelled Ed to revisit that interview.  It’s worth watching, here.  Main conclusion:  “The past 17 years have been a lot kinder to the Internet than to me.”  Allen took the Wayback Machine photograph to the right.
