This morning I was thinking fondly of the Telegarden and mourning the old weird Internet that created, nurtured, and cherished such things. The garden was created by Ken Goldberg and Joseph Santarromana at the University of Southern California and went online over the WWW in June 1995.

It was an actual garden equipped with a robot arm that people could control remotely over the Internet. You could look around, water actual plants, and eventually earn the right to plant a seed, assume responsibility for its care, and watch it sprout and grow.
