Michael Hart – The Father of E-Books, R.I.P.
Wednesday, 28th September 2011
A belated send-off for Michael Hart who created and sent the world’s first e-book, way back in the mainframe computing days of 1971 and went on to found Project Gutenberg.
He died September 6 at the relatively young age of 64. A full obituary is here in the Economist.
