    Best Online Marketing Websites

    In the 1960s, the U.S. Department of Defense developed a computer based communication system to

    control its armed forces. In 1964, they realized that if they had one central point for their system, all

    an enemy had to do was destroy that point for the system to be rendered ineffective. Therefore, a

    computer was developed by them based communication system based on the peer-to-peer concept --that is, there is no central office and every computer on the operational system can communicate

    with every other.

    In 1969, a recommendation was made to build a peer-to-peer network using packet switching

    technology -- a telecommunications standard which splits data into small packets of information that

    can travel by different routes to be assembled in order at the destination. The first network built (in

    1969) was called ARPANET, and it used peer-to-peer communications and packet switching.

    ARPANET was used by military bases, {universities and companies with U.companies and

    universities with U.S. Defense

    Department contracts.

    In 1984, ARPANET split into two separate networks: MILNET for military use, and the Internet for

    educational use. Many other independent computer networks started applying for permission to

    connect to the Internet, so in 1991, the Internet was made available to the general public. The

    Internet is based around common protocols and standards. Every computer connected to the

    Internet is assigned a unique identification number -- four numbers separated by periods e.g.

    212.186.25.4. Since that system is excellent for machines but difficult for humans, a domain naming

    system is used in which each i.d. number is assigned a name -- at least two pieces of information

    separated by a period e.g number is assigned a true name -- at least two pieces of information

    separated by a period e.g. summaries.com, cnn.com. In the 1990s, the concept of the World Wide

    Web (WWW) was developed.

    Seven Basic Internet Concepts

    1. The Internet is a means to an end and not an end in and of itself. It is a communication system in

    which every known member can both send and receive information.

    2. Every user is equal on the Internet, irrespective of and independent of traditional factors such as

    resources, physical location, etc.

    3. The Internet is not under the control of anyone -- no official or government approvals are required

    to use or do business over the Internet.

    4. Community standards have evolved with regards to the Internet, and you need to become familiar

    with these standards if you intend succeeding.

    5. The Internet is people-based, not government-based.

    6. The Internet is a known level playing field. The traditional prejudices with respect to background

    or nationality are irrelevant.

    7. A culture has developed around the use of the Internet which must be respect if you expect to
