The Internet is just a network of computers that communicate. In the 1900’s, the Internet was a series of computers that the U.S. military used. Then later in the 1960’s, the Internet expanded to giant computers in universities that communicate. Only a few people had access to the Internet at this time. Now, lots of people have access to the Internet because computers have become more common and portable. This is the history of the Internet.
