You didn't mention that before

How about 'Who invented the internet?' Hint: it was not Al Gore.

But trying to answer that one could take more then 5 minutes; a better choice might be 'Who invented the World Wide Web?' -- you should be able to get a short presentation from that.

I invented the internet.

Anyways, the internet started out as some military experiment and now is an everday lifestyle, so that's what I would choose. Of course there is the invention of the computer.

Hay mike,
Try doing your project on Unix or the first open source software that was ever made. Don't do it on Microsoft!!!!!!!!!!!!


Any way what year are you in?


Hope you give this idea a try!
