This research program known as the ARPANET, which was none other than to avoid the centralization of information at one point considered prone to be destroyed in case of war. In this way expected if one part of the network is disconnected, then the path through the network can be automatically transferred to other channels.
Year 1970
Already more than 10 computers are successfully connected to each other so that they can communicate with each other and form a network.
Year 1972

Computer University College in London was the first computer that is outside the United States who became members of the Arpanet network.

Meanwhile in Europe appear counter computer network known as Eunet, which provides computer network services in the countries of the Netherlands, Britain, Denmark and Sweden. Eunet network providing e-mail and USENET newsgroups.
Year 1984
To homogenize the address on existing computer networks, the system was introduced in this year's domain name, now we are familiar with DNS or Domain Name System. Computer connected to the existing network has more than 1,000 computers. In 1987 the number of computers connected to the network soared 10-fold manjadi 10,000 more.
Year 1988
Jarko Oikarinen of Finland discovered and simultaneously introduce an IRC or Internet Relay Chat. A year later, the number of interconnected computers soared 10-fold return in a year. No fewer than 100,000 computers are now forming a network.
Year 1990
Is a most historic year, when Tim Berners Lee to find a program editor and browser that can roam from one computer to another computer, which form a network. The program is called www, or the Worl Wide Web.
Year 1992
Computers that are connected to form a network has exceeded a million computers, and in the same year the term surfing the internet.

And enjoy the new commercial Internet service in about 1994.
