As you might expect for a technology so expansive and ever-changing, it is

impossible to credit the invention of the internet to single person. The
internet was the work of dozens of pioneering scientists, programmers and
engineers who each developed new features and technologies that eventually
merged to become the “information superhighway “we know today.

Long before the technology existed to actually build the internet, many
scientists had already anticipated the existence of worldwide networks of
information. Nikola Tesla toyed with the idea of a “world wireless system” in
the early 1900s, and visionary thinkers like Paul Otlet and Vannevar Bush
convinced of mechanized, searchable storage systems of books and media in
the 1930s and 1940s.
Still the first practical schematics for the internet would not arrive until the
early 1960s when MIT’s J.C.R Licklider popularized the idea of an
“Intergalactic Network” of computers. Shortly thereafter, computer
scientists developed the concept of “packet switching,” a method for
effectively transmitting electronic data that would later become on of the
major building blocks of the internet.

The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with
creation of ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network.
Originally founded by the U. S. Department of defense, ARPANET used packet
switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network.

On October 29, 1969, ARPANET delivered its first massage: a “node-to-node”

communication from one computer to another. (The first computer was located
in a research lab at UCLA and the second was at Stanford; each one was the
size of a small house.) the message – “LOGIN” – was short and simple, but it
crashed the fledgling ARPA network away: The Stanford computer only
received the note’s first two letters.

The technology continued to grow in the 1970s after scientists Robert Kahn
and Vinton Cerf developed Transmission Control Protocol and Internet
Protocol or TPC/IP, a communications model that set standards for how data
could be transmitted between multiple networks.

ARPANET adopted TPC/IP on January1, 1983, and from there researchers

began to assemble the “network of networks” that became the modern
Internet. The online world then took on a more recognizable form in 1090,
when computer scientist Tim Berners – Lee invented the World Wide Web.
While it’s often confused with the internet itself, the web is actually just the
most common means of accessing data online in the form of websites and
hyperlinks.
