The internet was never intended for you, opines Brian McCullough in
this lively narrative of an era that utterly transformed everything
we thought we knew about technology. In How the Internet Happened,
he chronicles the whole fascinating story for the first time,
beginning in a dusty Illinois basement in 1993, when a group of
college kids set off a once-in-an-epoch revolution with what would
become the first "dotcom." Depicting the lives of now-famous
innovators like Netscape's Marc Andreessen and Facebook's Mark
Zuckerberg, McCullough also reveals surprising quirks and unknown
tales as he tracks both the technology and the culture around the
internet's rise. Cinematic in detail and unprecedented in scope,
the result both enlightens and informs as it draws back the curtain
on the new rhythm of disruption and innovation the internet
fostered, and helps to redefine an era that changed every part of
our lives.
