The document provides an overview of the internet including its history and key components. It discusses how the internet is a global computer network consisting of interconnected networks using standardized protocols. It notes the internet has become a key driver of social evolution by changing business, education, healthcare and how people interact. The document also briefly introduces the concept of the internet of things and mentions key sources of information found on the internet. It concludes with a short summary of the early history of the internet originating from research in the United States and United Kingdom in the late 1950s and 1960s focusing on time-sharing and packet switching.

4. The Internet has changed business, education,
government, healthcare, and even the ways in which
we interact with our loved ones—it has become one
of the key drivers of social evolution. The changes in
social communication are of particular significance. ...
The Internet has removed all communication barriers.

6. The Internet of things (IoT) describes the
network of physical objects—“things”—that are
embedded with sensors, software, and other
technologies for the purpose of connecting and
exchanging data with other devices and
systems over the Internet

8. History of the Internet
The history of the Internet has its origin in the efforts to build
and interconnect computer networks that arose from research
and development in the United States and involved
international collaboration, particularly with researchers in
the United Kingdom and France. Computer science was an emerging
discipline in the late 1950s that began to consider time-sharing between
computer users and, later, the possibility of achieving this over wide area
networks. Independently, Paul Baran proposed a distributed network based
on data in message blocks in the early 1960s and Donald Davies conceived
of packet switching in 1965 at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in the
UK, which became a testbed for research for two decades.
