What country/ Who invented the internet?

Question

please no jokes about al gore... who really

Answer 1

there was no single inventor...but it was started by the USA (most definitely NOT Al Gore).

The precursor to the Internet, ARPANET was a large wide-area network created by the United States Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA). Established in 1969, ARPANET served as a testbed for new networking technologies, linking many universities and research centers. The first two nodes that formed the ARPANET were UCLA and the Stanford Research Institute, followed shortly thereafter by the University of Utah.

Answer 2

Who Invented Internet

Answer 3

The internet was invented in 1973 by the U.S. military for their use only. As the idea was invented in 1973, it wasn't a fully functional system until 1983.

In 1989, the English computer scientist Timothy Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web which is what we know the internet as today.

Answer 4

The Internet was not "invented", it was developed in a stepwise process over the course of approximately 30 years.

Packet switching was first proposed by Leonard Kleinrock of MIT in 1961. Independent (and unaware of Kleinrock and each other) research efforts related to packet switching were also undertaken at RAND (1962-1965) and NPL (1964-1967).

The idea of internetworking was first proposed (under the name of "galactic networking") by J.C.R. Licklider of MIT in 1962.

The first wide-area computer network was built in 1965 by Thomas Merrill and Lawrence Roberts.

The TCP/IP protocol was developed by a large group of engineers with major contributions by Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn (the joke among the engineers involved used to be, "Vint Cerf may be the father of the Internet, but we are all its mothers").

ARPAnet (the prototype of what was to become the Internet) was built in 1969 by a company called Bolt Beranek and Newman (BBN); the first node was deployed at UCLA, the second, at Stanford. By the end of 1969, two more nodes (UC Santa Barbara and University of Utah) were added.

From then on, the genie was out of the bottle; contributions were made by lots and lots of people through the process of publishing and stepwise refinement of RFCs (Requests for Comment), which in their final form define the basis of the Internet.

There was one special case though: the World Wide Web (including the HTTP protocol, Web browser, HTML, and search engine) was largely developed by one person, an Englishman named Tim Berners-Lee, in 1989-90, while he worked for European Nuclear Research Center (CERN) in Geneva, Swtizerland. He also built the world's first Web site, www.cern.ch.

Answer 5

The internet we know today, the finalised version, the world wide web, was not invented by a country, but a man belonging to the country of Britain.
