History of the Internet

In class, when you were asked which technology you usually use most of you thought of the Internet, but what's the Internet? By definition the Internet is a worldwide, publicly accessible series of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol. But, how did it come to be this technology that is so popular and so widely used around the world? Was it always so large and extensive, filled with information about just anything you could possibly think of accessible from almost anywhere, anytime? Well, the answer is no.

"History of the Internet" is an animated documentary explaining the inventions from time-sharing to filesharing, from Arpanet to Internet.
