Plato History
← Back to ResourcesPLATO History is a blog run by author Brian Dear, documenting the PLATO computer-based education system developed at the University of Illinois beginning in 1960. It features posts on PLATO's history, oral histories, related book promotion for "The Friendly Orange Glow," and connections between PLATO and figures like Roger Ebert and Richard Powers. The site serves as a personal research and promotional outlet rather than a formal archival institution.
