A Virtual World of Live Pictures.

Who has not heard of the Internet? Neither! Unless, of course, you’ve been living in a cave for the last decade! The Internet is the greatest achievement of the information age (which is what we call the age in which we live). It has completely revolutionized how we communicate and how we live.

But what exactly is it that we call the Internet? Simply put, the Internet is the interconnection of computers around the world. It enables users of these computers to communicate in various ways: through email, real-time conferencing, website information, file sharing, and more.

To connect to the Internet, you will need a computer and a connection to an ISP (Internet Service Provider). Your ISP will provide you with a connection and the means to connect to the Internet.

The Internet began as a project of the ARPANET (Agency for Advanced Research Projects of the US Department of Defense), which was commissioned by the Pentagon to investigate the uses of networks for military purposes in 1960. From there, The Internet was constantly developed to benefit the entire population.

At first, the Internet could only operate at a low data transfer speed. Today, ISPs offer speeds from 56 kilobytes per second to 10 megabytes per second or more! This allows people to transfer more data, facilitating better communication.

The Internet has such an impact on our daily lives that it has become essential for many people and companies.
