The internet was created as a project in 1958 by the United States Government ARPA (The Advanced Research Projects Agency) to network computers in order to gain a technological, and potentially a military advantage over the Soviets in the middle of the cold war. It was then used to connect several universities together forming the ARPANET so that they could assist in military and or technological research. Later the "internet" was opened to the common user and the name ARPANET was dropped.
The World Wide Web was originated in the UK by Tim Berners Lee (while working at CERN), as a user friendly layer on top of the already existing internet. He developed software for the World Wide Web and it became available from 1991 The World Wide Web is not the same thing as the Internet. The "Web" as it is called is simply a software application that uses the internet infrastructure to send data between devices running that particular application software.

∙ 15y agoThere are loads of different answers on the internet, but they all range from about the 60's to the 90's. There was an internet before the ARPAnet, so don't rely on any of those dates. If you want to find an exact date, you won't be able to on the internet - trust me, I've been searching for ages for my ICT prep.

∙ 9y agoThe first use was Arpanet. The goal of ARPANET was to allow university-based researchers working for the Defense Department to share information with their colleagues in other U.S. cities.
Some of the first "terminals" were Teletype machines. Punched paper tape was used for store and forward. The ASR-33 Teletypes had a "stunt box" which was a mechanical arrangement used to detect an incoming pattern and respond, usually by sending a pre-punched paper tape that was placed in the tape reader, awaiting a start command. This was the first type of "address recognition", albeit mechanical!
