Doug Engelbart, the visionary who foresaw the modern internet and created the mouse, dies aged 88
2013-07-04 15:28:33| Extremetech
Doug Engelbart, founder of the Augmented Research Center (ARC) at SRI and inventor of the computer mouse, has died at the age of 88. Engelbart was one of the first great computer visionaries, and perhaps the first to envision a future where computers, and more importantly networks of computers, augment human intellect. To this end, Engelbart and his fellow researchers at the ARC devised prototypes -- in the 1960s! -- that could be considered the forerunners of the World Wide Web, Skype, multiple on-screen windows, screen sharing, and the computer mouse.
