Brief History of Internet

By: HK Dahal

The Internet was the result of some visionary thinking by people in the early 1960s who saw great potential value in allowing computers to share information on research and development in scientific and military fields. J.C.R. Licklider of MIT, first proposed a global network of computers in 1962, and moved over to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in late 1962 to head the work to develop it. Leonard Kleinrock of MIT and later UCLA developed the theory of packet switching, which was to form the basis of Internet connections. Lawrence Roberts of MIT connected a Massachusetts computer with a California computer in 1965 over dial-up telephone lines. It showed the feasibility of wide area networking, but also showed that the telephone line’s circuit switching was inadequate. Kleinrock’s packet switching theory was confirmed. Roberts moved over to DARPA in 1966 and developed his plan for ARPANET. These visionaries and many more left unnamed here are the real founders of the Internet.

The Internet, then known as ARPANET, was brought online in 1969 under a contract let by the renamed Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) which initially connected four major computers at universities in the southwestern US (UCLA, Stanford Research Institute, UCSB, and the University of Utah). The contract was carried out by BBN of Cambridge, MA under Bob Kahn and went online in December 1969. By June 1970, MIT, Harvard, BBN, and Systems Development Corp (SDC) in Santa Monica, Cal. were added. By January 1971, Stanford, MIT’s Lincoln Labs, Carnegie-Mellon, and Case-Western Reserve U were added. In months to come, NASA/Ames, Mitre, Burroughs, RAND, and the U of Illinois plugged in. After that, there were far too many to keep listing here. View full article »

Number of blogs is increasing from day to day. What is the reason for this increase? The reason is, blogging brings lot of advantages to bloggers. Want to know what are those advantages? Below I have listed the advantages of Blogging. Read them, enjoy and lay your path to blogging :)

 

1) You can become a better researcher
Bloggers do research to ensure that they provide the correct information and a useful information to their readers or visitors. Researches are also done to find what kind of topic gets more attention more from your visitors.

When you keep doing these kind of researches you can improve your blog, and also you are becoming a better researcher. When you begin to blog, you won’t like doing researches. The current me is very different from the person before years. Back then, I hate researching, I don’t like to read other’s long articles. Anyway, now I know researching is really useful so I spend more time on researching than writing. I can be sure that all bloggers do researches before they begin to write a new article.

The Internet is like a network of networks where any computer can link up to information stored within it. It is accessed by a telecommunications line and a modulator-demodulator (MODEM). It is brought to your computer screen by converting analogue telephone signals into digital computer signals. There are many advantages and disadvantages on the Internet.

The main advantage of the Internet is that communication is made very easy. Two people on opposite sides of the world may communicate with each other via such things as videoconferences. This would save money on flights to other countries just to have a meeting when they can each communicate from their own office. View full article »

The foremost and the latest boon in the world for the area of communication was E-mail and internet,Phone and chatting.Internate was invented by Albert Gore Jr. in 1991s.This boon became the significant platform to exile Bhutanese to know the situation of resettlement by settled refugees in seven western countries.
Some years before exile Bhutanese were less interested to form websites and blogs.They used to read the newspaper published in exile.But now www.bhutannewsservice.com,www.refugeesvoice.wordpress.com, www.refugeetimes.blogspot.com and many more are the sites/blogs opened for exile Bhutanese by the Bhutanese itself.Invention of different background of websites and blogs makes the world communicative,closer and wide the narrow mentality.Above websites and blogs are too much important to exile Bhutanese to know the current  news regarding Bhutanese.development of sites and blogs at this time in exile is necessary to alive out history,literature and regular updates of the situation which gives challenges to the Bhutan government,who is censoring press activities in this 21st century.   View full article »

Media mirrors society. Through free access to information and the exchange of opinions, media empowers citizens to make free choice. Societies depend on this flow of information to keep it moving in the right direction. We have seen how modern societies rely so much  more on the media and how, in comparison, communities such as ours’ know so much less.

We can use internet  as media. We can unleash the power of internet in shaping the future of our community.

The internet media is the fastest online means to interlink with others. Internet media includes forums, blogs, podcasts, pictures and video, email, instant messaging, discussion boards, chat rooms, Google Groups, Wikipedia, Search engines and a host of social networking sites and tools including Myspace, Facebook, youtube, Twitter etc.

You do not need to be a journalist to be able to inform people via the internet. It is increasingly accessible and it helps connect people from different parts of the world at minimum expense. A few  websites, which Bhutanese journalists in exile have launched, have proven this point. These  websites are growi9ng in popularity despite being new and young.

We can use the power of internet to connect inform and educate audience. The internet will be a great instrument in thread9ng our communities, especially as they settle in different parts of the world. Whether it is used as a vehicle of communication or as a platform for discovering each other, exchanging information or exploring our history,  the internet stands out above any other form of mass communication.
