He was sent back in time (to 1965) in order to speed up the use of computer technology by the U.S. government. His initial efforts had limited success and created the timeline familiar to us. Some additional documents with advice were sent back to Perot in 1975 as a kind of "mid-course correction". This creates an alternative history that differs from our timeline. In our timeline, by 1985 computer networks suitable for exchanging email and newsgroup posts were growing. The World Wide Web launched in 1992 and by 1995 the wiki age had begun, but fiction wikia did not start until 2005. In the new timeline (as described in West Wing Wiki), Jimmy Carter becomes a two-term president and starts using wiki technology in 1984.
