The history of the internet began with
the development of electronic computers in the 1950s the public was fist
introduced to the internet when a
message was sent from computer science professor Leonard Kleinr ocks
laboratory at university of California, los Angeles
(UCLA), after the second piece of network equipment was installed at
Stanford Research Institute (SRI) . This connection not only enabled the first
transmission to be made, but is also considered to be the first intent
backbone
This
began the point - to – point communication between maintain computers
and then early research into
packet swatting pacet witched
networks
Such
as Arpanet, marri at MPL in the UK, Cyclades, merit network, tynet, and telent ,
were developed of protocols for intent working where multiple separate networks could b joined
together into a network of networks 19669:
the Arpanet.
Arpaet
was the first real network to run on pacacet
sweetening technology on the October
29 1969 , computers at Stanford and (UCLA) connected for the first time. In
effect they were the
first hosts on what would one day
become the internet . The first message
sent across the network was supposed to
be login ., but reportedly, the line between the two colleges crashed on the letter ‘g’
1969
UNIX
Another major
milestone dung the 60s was the inception of UNIX ; the operating system whose design heavily
influenced that of UNIX and fee BSD ( The
operating systems most popular in
today web serves web hosting services )
1970:
Arpanet network
An
Arpanet network was established between
Harvard, MIT, and BBN the company that created
the interface message processor
computers used to correct to the network
in 11970
1971 email
The
email was first developed in 1971
by ray Tomlinson, who also made
the decision to use the @ symbol to separate the user name from the computer name (which
later on became the domain name )
1971
: Project Gutenberg and Ebooks
One
of the most impressive developments of 1971
was the start of projects Gutenberg . project Gutenberg for those unfamiliar with the site, is a global
effort to make books
and documents in the public
domain available
electronically for free in a
variety of ebook and electronic formats . it
began when Michael hart gained access
to a large bloc of computing time
and came to the realization
that the future of computer wasn’t in
computing itself, but in the storage, retrieval and searching of information that, at the time, was only contained in libraries . he manually typed (No OCR at
the time) the “ declaration of independence” and launched project Gutenberg to make information contained in
books widely available in electronic
form in effect, this was the birth of
the ebook
1972 cyclades
France
began its own Arpanet like project in
1972 called Cyclades while
Cyclades was eventually shut down it did
pioneer a key idea . The host computer
should be responsible
for data transmission rather than
the network itself
1973, with the university college of London. During the same
years email accounted for 75% of all Arpanet network activity
1974 the beginning
of TCP ITP
1974 was a breakthrough year a
proposal was published to link area
like networks together into a so called
inter networks which would have
no central control and would work around a transmission control protocol
(which auenturally become
TCP (TP) 1975. The email Client
With
the popularity for emailing, the first modern
email program was developed by
john vital a programmer at the university of southern
California in 1975. the biggest
technological advance this program called MSG ) made was the addition of ‘reply” and ‘forward” functionality
1977: The PC Modern
1977: The PC modem
1977 was a gig year for the development of
the internet as we know it
today. The first PC modem , was
developed by Dennis itayes and Dale
healtherington, was introduced and initially sold to computer hobbyists
1978;
the bulletin board system (BBS)
The
first bulletin board system (BBS) was
developed during a blizzard in Chicago in
1978
1978 SPAM is born 1978 is also the year that brought
the first unsolicited commercial
email message (Later known as
spam) sent out to California Arpanet users by Gary
Thueric . 1979 : MUD
The earliest form of multiplayer games
The
precursor to world of war craft and second life was developed in 1979 ,
and was called MUD (short for multiuser
dungeon ) MUDS were entirely text based virtual worlds , combining elements of role paying
games, interactive, fiction, and online chart
1979 Usenet
Usenet
was created by two graduate students
it is an internet based discussion
system allowing people around the
globe to discuss about a particular topic by posting public
message
1980 Enquire software
The European
organization for nuclear
research (better known as (erm)
launched enquire written by Tim Bernars
lee), a hypertext program that allowed
scientists at the particle physical
using hypertext (hyperlinks )
1982
the first emotion
while many people credit Levin Macleazie with the invention of the emotion in 1979
it was Scott Eghlman in 1982
who proposed using
1983 Arpanet computers witch over to TCP IP
January 1 ,
1983 was the deadline for
Arpanet computers to switch over to the TCP/TP protocols developed
The domain name system was created
in 1984
along with the first domain name serves
(DMS ) the domain name
system was important in that it made
addresses on the internet more human
friendly compared to its numerical
IP address counterparts DMS
servers allowed internet users to
type in an easy to remember domain name
and then converted it to the IP
address automatically.
1985
virtual communities
1985
brought the development of the reell (whole
earth electronic link ) IT was deviled by Stewart Brand and Larry brilliant in February of 85
1986
protocol wars
Protocol wars began in 1986
1987
the internet grows
1988
IRC internet relay chat
It
was developed, paving the way for real
time chart and the intent messaging programs we use today
1988 first major malidosus
internet based attack . the first major internet worms was released in 1988,
the Morris worm” written by
Robert Tappai Morris
1989:
AOL is
launched
When apple
pulled out of the apple link program in
1989 , the project was reared and America online was born . In that same year the proposal for the
world wide web was written by Tim Burners’ lee . it was written to
persuade CERM’s bet interest . it was originally called ‘mesh ‘
the (WWW) “ world
Wide Web” was coined while burners
lee was writing the code in 1990
1990 first commercial cail UPISP
1990 also brought about the first commercial dial up
internet provider, the world . in that same year world wide web protocols finished
1991 first
web page created

that examined file contents instead of
just file name was launched called gopher. In that same year MPS becomes
a standard . Also the first web can was deployed at a Cambridge university computer lab, and its sole purpose was to monitor a particular cottee maker so
that lab user could
Avoid
wasted trips to an empty cottee pot .
