3. History of Internet?
In the 1960s the U.S. government, businesses, and colleges
worked together to make a system that would let computers
across the United States share information. They created an
early form of the Internet called ARPANET in 1969. In 1971
electronic mail, or e-mail, was invented as a way to send a
message from one computer to another.
By the mid-1970s many groups of computers were connected
in networks. Machines called routers were invented to connect
the networks. This is how the original ARPANET eventually
grew
into the Internet.
