I think the most important man that we were introduced to in class was, Joseph Carl Robnett Licklider. He wanted to create a connection between computers to share information. He helped create the Arpanet. Which was the world's first operational packet switching system. This allowed four IMP's to send and share information to one another. The Arpanet eventually led to the Internet. I choose JCR Licklider because i believe without him the internet would have taken a lot longer to be established.
