Reporter Flashes Back to Some Early Leonard Nimoy Internet Business

At the dawn of the graphical Web, Nimoy was boldly going where only a few other photographers had gone before.

Julio Ojeda-Zapata, a technology reporter and blogger with St. Paul, Minnesota’s Pioneer Press, dug into his newspaper’s archives today upon learning of the sad news of Leonard Nimoy’s death. He wrote a couple of articles about Spock back in the day, beginning with a locally flavored piece that must be logged at the opposite end of the technology spectrum celebrated in Star Trek.

As the reporter wryly notes in his blog post, the article dates back to a time when the Internet was known as the “World Wide Web.”
