 What is Internet ?

The internet is a globally connected network system that uses TCP/IP to

transmit data via various types of media. The internet is a network of global
exchanges – including private, public, business, academic and government
networks – connected by guided, wireless and fiber-optic technologies.

 History of Internet :

Professor Leonard Kleinrock is Distinguished Professor of Computer Science

at UCLA (University of California, Los Angles). He developed the mathematical
theory of packet networks, the technology underpinning the Internet, while a
graduate student at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) in the period
from 1960-1962. The birth of the Internet occurred in his UCLA laboratory (3420
Boelter Hall) when his Host computer became the first node of the Internet in
September 1969 and it was from there that he directed the transmission of the
first message to pass over the Internet on October 29, 1969.

 Reason for Internet Establishment :

Internet was established to enable two computers to communicate with

each other. It helped in establishing an environment where research labs, defense
labs, government departments can communicate at fast rate during the live
environments of world war. It helped people in exchanging information using file
transfer protocol. But with period of time as more and more users start joining
the network, each network started getting congested, so the reach of the network
and better performance of the network was increase by merging the networks
and the network was known as Internet.

 The Influence and Impact of the Internet :

The influence of the Internet on society is almost impossible to summarize

properly because it is so all-encompassing. Though much of the world,
unfortunately, still does not have Internet access, the influence that it has had on
the lives of people living in developed countries with readily available Internet
access is great and affects just about every aspect of life.

In the most general of terms, the Internet has definitely made many
aspects of modern life much more convenient. From paying bills and buying
clothes to researching and learning new things, from keeping in contact with
people to meeting new people, all of these things have become much more
convenient.

Communication has also been made easier with the Internet opening up
easier ways to not only keep in touch with the people you know, but to meet new
people and network as well.

The Internet has also turned into big business and has created a
completely new marketplace that did not exist before it.
