A word for word Internet is network between computers. The annals shows that Internet comes into being in the not so far 1957 in the Ministry of Defense of United States. Primary it was an agency with main task to develop a computer network which is able to survive after probable nuclear attack. Of course the time distance add a certain romance and even greatness of this idea. Unfortunately the brief reading between the lines hints as a primary reason the need of some fat colonel to assure himself against any disobedience of the spectacled noncom who operates with that wardrobe called computer. Finally if the interior try some shilly-shallying the colonel always can receive the dinner menu from the naval base at Eastern Seaboard.

After certain dawdle, that is typical for the military men all over the world if they execute something different than "Attention! Slope arms! At ease!" at 2nd of September, 1969 in the University of California has been created the first network between two computers that was around 16 feet each from another. That was the distant grandparent of the today's Internet the so called ARPAnet (named to the agency Advanced Research Projects Agency)
