History of TV
Television was not invented by a single inventor, instead many
people working together and alone over the years, contributed
to the evolution of television.
Electronic television was first successfully demonstrated in San
Francisco on Sept. 7, 1927. The system was designed by Philo
Taylor Farnsworth, a 21-year-old inventor who had lived in a
house without electricity until he was 14.

History of the Internet
The history of the Internet begins with the development of
electronic computers in the 1950s.
he 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 Cold War. For years,
scientists and researchers used it to communicate and 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.

Web 2.0
Web 2.0 describes World Wide Web sites that use technology
beyond the static pages of earlier Web sites. The term was
coined in 1999 by Darcy DiNucci and was popularized by Tim
O'Reilly at the O'Reilly Media Web 2.0 conference in late 2004.
A Web 2.0 site allows users to interact and collaborate with
each other in a social media environment, as consumers of
user-generated content in a virtual community.
Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs,
wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services and Web
applications

Internet Pop-Ups
Pop-up ads are small windows that open automatically on your
screen. They often (but not always) display advertising, which
can be from legitimate businesses.

in the late 1990s.
In the early 2000s, all major web browsers except Internet
