Word origin

The term 'internet' originates from the words 'inter' for interconnected and 'net' for network. The concept of a global network of computers was first proposed in the 1960s, leading to the development of ARPANET in the United States. Over the decades, the internet has evolved into a vital tool for communication, information sharing, and global connectivity.
