oct 28, 1960 - Internet

Description:

The origins of the Internet date back to research commissioned by the federal government of the united states in the 1960's to build robust, fault-tolerant communication with computer networks. Most traditional communications media, including telephony, radio, television, paper mail and newspapers are reshaped, redefined, or even bypassed by the Internet, giving birth to new services such as email, Internet telephony, Internet television, online music, digital newspapers, and video streaming websites.
