The document discusses the history and evolution of the internet from its origins in 1965 as a way for computers to share information to the present-day World Wide Web. It describes the development of ARPANET in the late 1960s, the introduction of the World Wide Web by Tim Berners-Lee in 1991, and the creation of early web browsers like Mosaic in the 1990s. It then outlines the differences between Web 1.0, characterized by static websites, and Web 2.0, defined by user-generated and interactive content. The document concludes by predicting further changes like an "Internet of Things" and concerns about divisions exacerbated by greater internet access in the future.

1. The internet

2. Pre-World Wide Web
The inventions of the internet was driven by the rapid
progression of digital technology in the 80’s and 90’s.
The ‘internet’ first began as a way of sharing information
from one computer to another that began In 1965, where
a M.I.T. scientist developed a way of sending information
from one computer to another that he called “packet
switching.” this lead to the birth of the ARPAnet – the
governments computer network.
In 1969, the ARPAnet sent its first message to another
computer.

3. World Wide Web development
1991 - Tim Berners-Lee, from Switzerland, introduced the World Wide
Web. A data base where anyone with the internet could access
information.
1992 - a group of students and researchers at the University of Illinois
developed a sophisticated browser that they called Mosaic. This
allowed people to see for example images from all over the world on
one page.
1995 - CompuServe, America Online, and Prodigy start providing dial-
up Internet access. This means people were able to use the internet at
home is they had the technology
1996 - Approximately 45 million people are using the Internet (30
million of them from north America, 9 million from Europe)
1997 - NASA website broadcasts images taken by Pathfinder on Mars.
1998 – Google was launched

4. Web 1.0
Web 1.0 is what we call the web in its earliest stages. It was
entirely made up of Web pages connected by hyperlinks, not
yet including the interactive content we see and use today.
It was mainly used to hosting websites, emailing and simple
web pages with written information.
It had early equivalents of wed pages we see today, such as
MP3.com which was the first website set up geared towards
sharing and listening to music. It was founded in 1997 and
shut down in 2004.
Characteristics of web 1.0
-the websites were static
-the websites weren't interactive

5. Web 2.0
• The idea of Web 2.0 began to appear from
1999-2004, when in 2004 O'Reilly Media and
Media Live hosted the first Web 2.0
conference.
Web 2.0 is the internet we know today, and it
was designed with the aim to be more of a
platform for other media’s than anything.
It included social networking websites, dynamic
to user input technologies, blogging, podcasting.

6. The First
The first website,
1990 – made by
Tim Berners Lee
Who was working
For CERN (European
Organization for
Nuclear Research).

7. The first social media website
Six Degrees, was created in 1997. It enabled
users to upload a profile and make friends with
other users.

8. The first email
The first email sent was sent Ray Tomlinson to
himself in 1971. he later stated that it “was so
forgettable that he couldn’t remember what he
had sent”

9. The first tweet
The first ever tweet was written by co-founder
Jack Dorsey on March 21, 2006.

10. How web 2.0 has changed the internet
Web 2.0 is reshaping how we do things as a society. It is changing how we
communicate
with friends and in business, we are informed of important events, we shape
government policy, collaborate in the classroom and at work.
It has allowed for information to be accessed almost anywhere in the world,
particularly with the convergence of the internet on smart phones. With 40%
of the world popular in 2014 using the internet, it in classed as a global
organisation of unlimited information. It has changed the way people interact
with one another and allowed us to order products right from our homes
such as with the development of Ebay (1995) and Amazon (1994)
Web 2.0 has also allowed for people to create their own apps for example
Facebook had their own app where people can use the website in a more
condensed way on their mobile phones.
Facebook app users - 1.31 billion mobile active users 4/22/15 an increase of
23 percent year-over-year.
Facebook web users – Worldwide 1.49 billion monthly active Facebook users,
a 13 percent increase year over year as of 6/30/15

11. The future
15 predictions from the newly released Digital Life at 2025:
• Information sharing over the Internet will be so effortlessly interwoven into daily life that it will
become invisible, flowing like electricity, often through machine intermediaries.
• The spread of the Internet will enhance global connectivity, fostering more positive relationships
among societies.
• The Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and big data will make people more aware of their
world and their own behaviour.
• Augmented reality and wearable devices will be implemented to monitor and give quick feedback
on daily life, especially in regard to personal health.
• Political awareness and action will be facilitated and more peaceful change, and more public
uprisings like the Arab Spring will emerge.
• The spread of the “Ubernet” will diminish the meaning of borders, and new “nations” of those with
shared interests may emerge online and exist beyond the capacity of current nation-states to
control.
• The Internet will become “the Internets”
• An Internet-enabled revolution in education will spread more opportunities with less money spent
on buildings and teachers.
• Dangerous divides between haves and have-nots may expand, resulting in resentment and possible
violence.
• Abuses and abusers will ‘evolve and scale.’ Human nature isn’t changing; there’s laziness, bullying,
stalking, stupidity, pornography, dirty tricks, crime, and the offenders will have new capacity to
make life miserable for others.
• Pressured by these changes, governments and corporations will try to assert power – and at times
succeed – as they invoke security and cultural norms.
• Most people are not yet noticing the profound changes today’s communications networks are
already bringing about; these networks will be even more disruptive in the future.

12. Web 3.0
There is some evidence that web 3.0 will act like a
personal assistant to people's lives. That you will be
able to type in a sentence to Google of something
you may want to do and the internet will do all the
work for you and find out all the information you
need.
People are also worried for the future of the
internet, with fears of greater identity theft and
divisions people as the internet could enhance
violence and organised violence amongst people.
