By 1971, Ray Tomlinson sent the first network email and introduced the "@" symbol. By 1973, ARPANET became international, connecting nodes in Norway and the UK. 3. The Invention of TCP/IP (1970s–1983)
As more independent networks emerged, they were often incompatible. and Bob Kahn , often called the "Fathers of the Internet," solved this by designing a universal language.
The journey began in the late 1950s, catalyzed by the Cold War.
The creation of the internet was not a single "eureka" moment but a decades-long evolution involving government agencies, academic researchers, and visionary computer scientists. It transitioned from a Cold War-era military project into the global, commercial network we use today. 1. The Seeds of Connectivity (1950s–1960s)
After the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the U.S. government established the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) in 1958 to ensure American technological superiority.
