1. The first message ever sent across the Internet was an attempt to send a LOGIN command from UCLA to a host at SRI on October 29, 1969.
2. The initial attempt failed, because the system crashed after they had transmitted only “LO”.
3. They repeated the attempt about an hour later, and successfully sent “LOGIN” to SRI.
4. You realize what this means, right? It means that the first 3 letters ever sent over what is now the Internet were:
LO
L
