Not directly ... But the Bible does predict the explosion of knowledge which the Internet is certainly a part of, that is currently underway.
"But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased" (Daniel 12:4). Throughout thousands of years of history the level of knowledge only increased incrementally. But in the last century Recently it was calculated that the total level of human knowledge is growing so quickly that it literally doubles every twenty-four months!

This is a quote from JJ Dewey from http://www.freeread.com/archives/346.php
There are several more mentions on the link.
"One of the greatest predictions of the Internet was a parable of Jesus:
Matt 13:47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, (the Internet) that was cast into the sea (the peoples of the earth - See Rev 17:15), and gathered of every kind:
Matt 13:48 Which, when it was full (when most are online), they drew to shore (many physically gathered from the Internet), and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels (Cities of Light), but cast the bad away (those who do not have soul contact leave).
Matt 13:49 So shall it be at the end of the age: the messengers shall come forth, and sever those in error from among the just (the teachings of light will be rejected by those who are not ready),
Matt 13:50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
The truth of enlightened teachings will be so obvious that it will burn like a fire in those who refuse to accept them. The fire will produce the heated emotions of anger in the lesser evolved."

Not computers or the internet directly I don't believe, but looking at the Book of Genesis, I can make out the letters "AL GORE" by skipping letters and words. I guess that is proof enough?

These people had barely mastered the wheel. How were they going to predict computers?
