Until the 1960s, the idea of a global information network was strictly the domain of science fiction writers. Early computers were enormous, expensive monstrosities, and the idea of linking them together seemed absurd. But by 1970, computers are already prevalent in government, business and academia. ARPANET, precursor to the internet, has been online for a year, networking a handful of major computers across America.

While most Canadians have never even seen a computer, a few visionaries recognize that computer networks will change our world completely. One such person is Graham Spry, a Canadian journalist, diplomat and political activist who was instrumental in bringing public broadcasting to Canada. In this interview, Spry tells CBC Radio's Warren Davis that a new age of communication is dawning. He believes computers will not only change the way we get information and buy products, but will alter the way people work and live.
