by Jelena Cosic 27 Jul '22

27 Jul '22

Hi all, for those of you that enjoyed our presentation on the history of ex-Yu internet at the SEE 10, I recommend you to check out a recent talk at the HOPE conference titled "Revolution During Disintegration: Lessons from a Short History of Yugoslav Computing" by Vlado Vince. Here's the Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18BKW9ugjQM&t=2092s Vlado did a great job and I'm quite happy to see stories of Galaksija computers, Sezam BBS, ZaMir and JUPAK networks reaching wider audiences. Cheers, Jelena
