***************************

Steve Bachrach, who first conceived of the ECCC and organized the first five conferences, gave a description of ECCC-1 here: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ci00025a011

As his article explains, ECCC-1 was the first online chemistry conference to take place entirely through the use of web browsers and hypertext. It was preceded by ChemConf '93, which was the first online chemistry conference but did not use the Web; rather, it relied on email discussion groups and ftp to share files. 

See also: http://www.harald-schweim.de/lustry/ca25/NIU.htm . Also, every ECCC was announced on the Computational Chemistry List (http://www.ccl.net).

ECCC-1  The ECCC was first organized by Steve Bachrach in November 1994. The Proceedings of the First Electronic Computational Chemistry Conference were published on CDROM by ARInternet, but are apparently no longer available. See here.

ECCC-2  Organized by Steve Bachrach in November 1995. The Proceedings of the Second Electronic Computational Chemistry Conference have been published in the Journal of Molecular Structure (THEOCHEM), 1996, volume 368. Link

ECCC-3  Organized by Steve Bachrach in November 1996. The Proceedings of the Third Electronic Computational Chemistry Conference have been published in the Journal of Molecular Structure (THEOCHEM), 1997, volume 419. SOC Members: Stephen Gray, Henry Rzepa, Harold Schranz, Herbert Homeier. Link

ECCC-4  Organized by Steve Bachrach in November 1997. The Proceedings of the Fourth Electronic Computational Chemistry Conference were published as individual articles in the Internet Journal of Chemistry. This journal is now defunct.

ECCC-5  Organized by Steve Bachrach in November 1998. The proceedings of this conference were published as individual articles in the Internet Journal of Chemistry. This journal is now defunct.

ECCC-6  Organized by Herbert Homeier in November 1999, with assistance from Steven Bachrach. No proceedings were published. See here.
