Development of Communication 1/1/1983 : first TCP/IP-wide area network made 1988 : opening of the network to commercial interests began 1989 : The Web was invented by English scientist Tim Berners-Lee 2008 : 1.407 billion people use the Internet 1850 : started the first telegraph cable link between England and France. 1956 : the first trans-Atlantic telephone cable = 36 analog phone channels Now : fiber-optic submarine cables = 1 Tb/s, equivalent to 15 million old analog phone calls
