We can apparently see the benefits of Internet in business. Today we are living in the era of the Internet and computers where we can easily see the uses of internet in business.

The question may arise, Is “online selling” a good business?

Using the internet for business is very common and sometimes compulsory. Due to the centralization of data for various departments and keeping them for ease of people there is a dependency between the internet and business.

We can see by using internet and web design there are some websites and web applications provided by the government for easiness of people i.e., online firm registration, online tax payment.

What Is Internet?

Now the next few lines are going to be very interesting for you. The word Internet is the portmanteau of interconnected networks. Sounds amazing, isn’t it?

It is a wide network of interconnected networks that work as a global system. By using some protocols (TCP/IP) It links public, private, academic, government, and business networks and is called a network of networks.

It uses some networking technologies such as electronic, wireless, and optical (Optical Fiber) to link devices worldwide. So if questions arise, What is the internet, or what is the internet definition?

We can give a simple definition of the internet. As we know simplicity is a virtue itself.

Some people often get confused and consider the world wide web and the Internet are the same thing. No doubt they are related to each other but both are two different things.

“For searching a topic of interest on the Internet we move from one link to another link, It's called the Internet Surfing.  On a website, in any article there may be some links that redirect you to another page of your interest. Internet online surfing has become a favorite time pass for many internet users. So it involves jumping from page to page with less typing.”

 

History Of Internet

When we talk about the Internet and internet surfing we feel excited. But at the beginning phase, the internet was not used for fun, rather the origin of the internet was very serious.
 
The internet came into existence in the 1960s. It was firstly used for the development of packet switching and research commissioned to enable time-sharing of mainframe computers by the United States Department of Defense.
 
Packet switching: Is a method in which data are grouped and send over a digital network in the packets form.
 
Time-sharing: It is a method of sharing a computing resource among multiple users at the same time by using multiprogramming and multitasking.
 

Who invented the internet when 

 
The modern internet which we are using today is developed in many phases. As we know the Internet was originated in the 1960s by the Advanced Research Projects Agency(ARPA) of the United States Department of Defence funded into time-sharing of computers.
 
We can say computer scientists Vinton Cerf & Bob Kahn have credit for inventing the Internet protocols used for communication which we use today and the system is known as the Internet.
 
Actually there were many more scientists who worked for the development of the Internet. It evolved gradually and as a result of this evolution, we are using the modern Internet today.
 
So let's clear some queries,
 

Who invented the internet

Computer scientists Vinton Cerf & Bob Kahn invented the Internet protocols used for communication and systems called the Internet.
 

When was the internet invented 
 

  • It started in the 1960s by the Advanced Research Projects Agency(ARPA) of the United States Department of Defence.
     
  • ARPANET is the pioneer network, initially used as a backbone for interconnection of regional academic and military networks in the 1970s.
     
  • In the 1980s a new backbone arose by funding the National Science Foundation Network. The internet was used widely by academia during this period. Its commercialization incorporated services and technologies into almost every side of modern life
     
  • Worldwide participation was increased due to private funding for other commercial extensions for developing new network technologies. The transformation to the modern Internet was started in the early 1990s by the linking of commercial networks and corporations. It was the result of the merging of many networks.
