Internet History

The internet is a global network that connects billions of devices worldwide and allows them to communicate and share information. It has become integral to modern life, impacting how we communicate, access information, conduct business, and entertain ourselves. The concept of a decentralized network capable of withstanding nuclear attacks was proposed in the 1960s, laying the groundwork for ARPANET. The TCP/IP protocols provided the technical foundation for networking in the 1970s, and DNS allowed for easier navigation in 1983. The commercialization of the internet began in the 1990s with the emergence of ISPs, and usage grew rapidly as more people gained access. The internet continues to evolve and expand in the 21st century through advancements in broadband, mobility,

drive innovation and shape our world.
Let's use it to make sure everyone gets
a fair chance at a better future.
World Wide Web
The World Wide Web is a system
of interconnected documents
and resources accessible via the
internet.
The invention of the World Wide Web
(WWW) by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989
marked a significant milestone in the
history of computing and communication.
Berners-Lee, a British computer scientist
working at CERN, envisioned a system that
would allow scientists from around the
world to easily share and access
information stored on different computers.
The World Wide Web was invented to
simplify information sharing and access,
initially for scientists. It's important
because it democratizes information,
enhances communication, and fosters
global collaboration, revolutionizing
education, business, research, and social
interaction.
Thank you
