March 5th 2016..
Its a year ago that Ray Tomlinson passed away...credited by many in the Industry as the man who invented EMAIL...
Back in 1971 while working on a Project, Ray simply tried to find a way to send messages from one computer to another allowing the user to attach files along....if he wanted....
At first not many were interested in it so he sent the first email - To himself...using two computers ten feet apart...and kept moving his chair whizzing from one terminal to the other...
Although another Scientist VA Shiva Ayyadurai from New Jersey lays his own claims as the True Inventor of EMAIL, we here in the ICT world of Education just want to pay our respects to Tom...who died a year ago on March 5th 2016.
Rest in Peace Tom and thanks for many things...
