I didn't understand one word of that. Granted I didn't read past the first 2 sentences for fear of my head exploding, I still didn't get it
Created by scientists in universities who need to share research information fast.
1969 "Apernet" becomes active- 4 universities share 1 computer
1970's Apernet expands- 23 US universities sharing 1 computer
1972 First e-mail technology available
1973 Apernet goes international... University College London join (my uni!)
Next comes "JANET" (Joint Academic NETwork)
1980s home PC is developed
mid-1980s schools start getting computers
late 1980's worms, viruses, hackers get going
1990s Aparnet is gone
1992 Commercial restrictions lifted
Rate of growth becomes huge.
First product you could buy on line was a pizza (from pizza hut!)
Today, 700, 000, 000 people use the internet worldwide. (8 Billion people wordwide do not use the internet).
