Happy 40th Birthday, Internets!

Today, the World Wide Web is 40. Pretty crazy, huh? I bet most of us would guess that the internet is about 20+ years old, at most, but in fact, the very first message was sent via Arpanet on October 29, 1969.

So, as you’re bouncing around the internet today, playing, working, emailing, or just generally ‘surfing,’ be sure to wish it a happy birthday!
