Timothy Leary was nothing if not an early adopter. He's best known for his starring role in the psychedelic revolution of the '60s, but in the '80s and '90s he became captivated by the transformative potential of personal computers and the Internet.
Leary coined the phrase "turn on, tune in, drop out" in the '60s, urging people to explore consciousness and embrace individual freedom with or without the aid of psychedelic drugs. At the dawn of the Internet age, he amended that slogan to:"turn on, boot up, jack in."
