"The Internet in 1969" was eerily correct

Predictions of the future are often foolish and do not give an accurate representation of reality. In this case, they got it nailed pretty nicely.

We don’t know the history of this video, but it seems authentic. In it, they predict webcam, online bill pay, email, and online shopping as well as a few other nice features of today’s technological world. Not bad for hippies of the 60s.

That’s probably because a lot of those hippies, like Steve Jobs, were at the forefront of the computing industry.
