The first hosts on what would one day
become the Internet. -
Network between Harvard, MIT, and BBN (the company that created the
"interface message processor" computers used to connect to the network) in 1970 was created. -
Developed by Ray Tomlinson, who also made the decision to use the "@" symbol to separate
the user name from the computer name (which later on became the domain name) -
A proposal was published to link Arpa-like networks together into a so-called "inter-network",
which would have no central control and would work around a transmission control protocol (which eventually became TCP/IP). -
The modem was invented by Dennis Hayes and Dale Heatherington,
and was introduced and initially sold to computer hobbyists. -
The first unsolicited commercial email message(later known as spam), was sent out to 600 California
Arpanet users by Gary Thuerk. -
The precursor to World of Warcraft and Second Life was
developed in 1979, and was called MUD (short for MultiUser Dungeon). MUDs were entirely text-based virtual worlds, combining
elements of role-playing games, interactive, fiction, and online chat. -
The first emoticon was used While many people credit Kevin MacKenzie with the invention of
the emoticon in 1979, it was Scott Fahlman in 1982 who proposed using :-) after a joke, rather than the original -) proposed by
MacKenzie. -
The first Domain Name Servers (DNS) was created. The domain name system
was important in that it made addresses on the Internet more human-friendly compared to its numerical IP address counterparts.
DNS servers allowed Internet users to type in an easy-to-remember domain name and then converted it to the IP address
automatically. -
The code for the World Wide Web was written by Tim Berners-Lee, based on his
proposal from the year before, along with the standards for HTML, HTTP, and URLs. -
brought some major innovations to the world of the Internet. The first web page was created
and, much like the first email explained what email was, its purpose was to explain what the World Wide Web was. -
