A history of the Internet (1957-2009)

View Comments

If, God forbid, the internet suddenly ceased to exist today I think I would start a revolution.  I, like many of us, am very dependent on the internet.  I use it for just about everything: communication, shopping, news, reading, etc.

But other than knowing that it wasn’t invented by Al Gore and that the internet and the world wide web are not the same thing, I know next to nothing about the history and development of the internet.

So, here is a brief history of the internet, going all the way back to 1957.
