Douglas Engelbart passed away at age 88, just over a half-century after he joined the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) -- the place where much of his ground-breaking computing research would take place. Among his (and his research team's) many inventions made at SRI are the mouse, bitmapped screens, hypertext, networked computers and elements of a modern, windowed GUI.

I have simple rule in life. I do not care about actors, singers and directors. Most of this guys have no real value and time you spent on them is just wasted time.

I read and learn about guys like Douglas.
