In 1972, while working at [[DARPA]], he gave a presentation of the an ARPAnet network, connecting 40 different computers at the International Computer Communication Conference. This was the first time that much of the computing world, and the general population were introduced to the revolutionary network.<ref>[http://www.livinginternet.com/i/ii_kahn.htm LivingInternet.com]</ref>
