Inside This Section
In this section, you can explore important events in the history of journalism and media - from the first cave paintings till the invention of the Internet. Along the way, you'll see pictures and videos, and hear sound clips.

How to Navigate
When you click on the timeline link below, a new browser window will open with the first timeline section in it. To get back to this page, just use the taskbar (Win95) or press ALT+TAB (Windows 3.1). We've taken a new approach: instead of scrolling down, scroll sideways! There is a sidebar (like the one to the left) at the beginning and end of each timeline page, with links to the other Times sections. Clicking on hyperlinks within the timeline itself will lead to pop-up windows with longer, more detailed articles. If you have a browser which doesn't support tables, or if you wish to print the Times section, click for a text-only version.
