A history of the internet for visual learners

In class we watched a video on the History of the Internet. While it provided a great background on the the ideas and innovators behind the internet, I had difficulty conceptualizing the progression from ARPAnet to the web we know today. I did some research and found this great video on topic that is visually stimulating and easy to understand. The video was made entirely from in PICOL, a pictorial communication language which aims to find a common language for online communication. I found this visual representation of the Internet's evolution very effective. Hope you enjoy!
