The History Of Internet

Post by shanker »

Heres somethin interesting.

did anyone knew that the internet started out as a us defencse technology. Basically, in 1958, Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) was launched and it was used to create a network called ARPANET

on that network, they had speed measured in kilobits per second and they had only two computers on it (max)

the history goes on.,,,, but i dun wanna say it and ruin the fun,,, one of da dudes knows about this say the rest and leave others to contribute too

even before the US Department of Defense Co-OPted the technology a small network of scientists...i believe seizmologists had created the precursor the the internet to share earthquake and volcanic data over the phone in images.
