the internet in the 20th century. Humans
almost immediately figured a way to use it to
communicate. Ray Tomlinson sent the first
email in 1971. Social Networks starts in 1979 with
Usenet, which was a hybrid between email and
web forums. The first social network, that was
similar to what we know today, was called
SixDegrees. Then came Friendster, then
LinkedIn, followed by Myspace and finally,
Facebook.
