Celebrating the 30th anniversary of Doug's 1968 Demo
December 9, 1998
Engelbart's Unfinished Revolution
– Stanford University Libraries and the Institute for the Future presented a day-long, public symposium that brought together Engelbart and members of his historic team, along with other computer visionaries, to consider the impact of Engelbart's work on the last three decades of the computer revolution, to explore the challenges facing us today, and to speculate about the next three decades. This celebration marked the 30th anniversary of Doug's now famous 1968 demo where he and his team at SRI first introduced their seminal work to the world.
