The world wide web

We have gotten to the point in history where we interact with the internet in our everyday lives. It allows us to communicate, find information, shop online, etc. But what is the internet exactly? This article will go over the basics of what the internet is. The internet was created during the cold war era when the countries feared a nuclear war. The internet is the interlinking of all the computers. With all of the computers linked together communication was easier than ever. All that needed to be done was for a message to be sent to the intended reciever computer. Soon after the internet was created web servers developed web sites which allows for information to be downloaded and uploaded through the internet. With further development of technology the internet grew into a world wide web of interlinked computers and web servers all over. Thus the internet grew into the world wide web we now know today.
