BY HISTORY.COM
Unlike technologies such as the light bulb or the telephone, the Internet has
no single inventor. Instead, it has evolved over time. The Internet got its start
in the United States more than 50 years ago as a government weapon in the

share data with one another. Today, we use the Internet for almost everything,
and for many people it would be impossible to imagine life without it.
