What hath God wrought.....
When Samuel Morse sent the first telegraph message in 1844, he had an eye for drama, tapping out "What hath God wrought" on a line from Washington, DC to Baltimore, Maryland, US.
On 29 October 1969, two scientists established a connection between computers some 350 miles away and started typing a message. Halfway through, it crashed. In hindsight, what hath God wrought, might have been an appropriate opening message for those guys as well. A story of how the internet started: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/2...d-the-internet
