What Is The Internet...
The internet is something all of us use, often times on a daily basis, the internet connects most computers together into one small space where we can share data, video, games, communication, etc. The internet started as a simple project/experiment made by some researchers in 1974 calling it the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP for short) which connected a couple of computers in the same room allowing them to communicate according to the rules which the Internet Protocol Suite placed to help communicate. The Internet Protocol Suite made rules to which computers would communicate (like the rules of grammar) so computers and their users could communicate in various ways and understand. As this experiment started in one room it later spread to buildings and countries and later became the world wide web as we know it. When people use the internet it is extremely user friendly helping you find anything you want to know on it, yet most people don't think of the equipment used to make the internet usable and faster, such as fiber optic cables, but whether you think of the equipment or the communication of the world wide web, the internet is as big part of life now as we are.
