Thurs., 5/27 at 1pm: INSIDE the INTERNET: HOW IT WORKS with Brian Bock Did you know that the Internet of today evolved out of a military project which was actually designed to survive a nuclear war? What do acronyms like HTTP or DNS mean, and why are they important? Find out how the Internet really works from a technical perspective – but geared toward the non-techie. At the end, you will have a chance to ask your burning questions. ~ Brian Bock has worked online his entire career and in 1996 started his own Internet-based software development firm.

Wed., 6/02 at 1pm: ENDANGERED ALPHABETS: AN INTRODUCTION with Tim Brookes ~ More than 85% of the world's alphabets are in danger of extinction -- suppressed, marginalized, excluded from education, sometimes, even banned. When they are forced into disuse, centuries, even millennia of written documents will be incomprehensible to the very culture that created them.
