The history of online bingo

I was thinking, that I never really took time to learn about bingo history.
I'm a well-educated man, if I may say so, and I'm usually interested in the origins of things like that, but somehow I always avoided reading about bingo in Wikipedia or other information websites.

I was chatting with a friend on one of the online bingo chat rooms the other day, and he asked me if I knew that bingo was played with beans at first, I was surprising, but I recall that I heard something about it somewhere in the past. I checked it on Wikipedia and it was correct. Online bingo DID start as a game of beans called "Beano".

I think I'll take some time now to read and learn more about the game, I just feel that its the right thing to do for someone like me who is definitely into online bingo games.
