Founder of Internet--how many of you knew who it is?

Hi kalav56! I never knew who the inventor or the "genius" behind the internet! Thanks to you, now I know. And I am so glad that I knew the person who invented internet. Because of him, we were able to do so many things and be informed of so many information that is ours for he taking. Thanks Mr. Vins Cerf, if not for you I will not be able to connect around the world. WOW! Take care and have a wonderful day! lovelots..faith

Thanks for sharing is good to know about this info.

Thanks for sharing such an interesting details. It is a matter of our General Knowledge and I believe that we all should know about it.

Ummm, I'm pretty sure he was ONE OF the group who invented it. It was originally a military project (ARPANET), designed to impede the potential damage of a pre-emptive strike by Russia: putting information in a whole bunch of places rather than a central location, and thus avoiding the total blackout of a single nuke ploughing into the old-style data centre holding it all. Lawrence Roberts started the project and Vint Cerf was one of the two or three guys who basically invented the TCP protocols. That's an *amazing* piece of work if you think about it: a data protocol that hasn't changed dramatically in over 30 years, despite all the technological advances... wow. So although he deserves accolades, I don't think it's very fair to the other people to give him all the credit. Though I may be wrong in my details.
