“History of the Internet” is an animated documentary explaining the inventions from time-sharing to filesharing, from Arpanet to Internet.
The history is told using the PICOL icons on www.picol.org. You can already download a pre-release of all picol icons on http://blog.picol.org/downloads/icons/

I like this one a lot, too. I use it in the syllabus for my other course. I particularly like the way this history brings up the role of non-USA projects, which is usually glossed over in most short histories of the Internet.
