The Computer History Museum - Where Computer History Lives


Located in Mountain View, California, The Computer History Museum is a place that for many of us is just too far away to visit. This is clearly something that the museum staff realise, and not being content with making a mass of articles available for reading on their web site, they've also got a packed YouTube channel which you can find over at http://www.youtube.com/computerhistory

The channel currently hosts a whopping 71 videos, ranging from such topics as The Secret History of Silicon Valley, Computer Graphics in Games, to The Origins of Linux and Charles Babbage & his Difference Engine.

There's hours of material available, and it'll take you an age to plough through, but it's a fantastic way to pass any spare time you might have.
