ON THIS DAY | In 1995, the MIT Media Laboratory published A Day in the Life of Cyberspace, a global digital project capturing perspectives from around the world at the dawn of the internet age.

To mark the Media Lab’s 10th anniversary, contributors shared their thoughts on topics including privacy, expression, faith, language, wealth and the environment in the days leading up to October 10.

The submissions were collected, edited and published to create a snapshot of life during a pivotal moment in technological history, as the World Wide Web began transforming how people connect, communicate and share information.

ON THIS DAY | In 1996, the US Postal Service issued a special “Computer Technology” stamp to commemorate the 50th anniversary of ENIAC, one of the world’s first general-purpose electronic computers.

Unveiled at the Army’s Aberdeen Proving Ground, the stamp paid tribute to the pioneers who helped launch the computer age, featuring a brain overlaid with circuit board elements and binary code.

Fittingly, the stamp itself was designed entirely on a computer, celebrating both the origins of modern computing and the technology it helped inspire.
