Internet 1

About a week ago I made a thread and asked for information on Internet 2, and now I'm back and I need information on Internet 1:  The people behind it, statistics, history, EVERYTHING!

Grateful for any help,
Fraek.

    Well Internet 1 aka The internet was funded by the government ( ie most new tech is developed at first by the government usually for military purposes ( first computer)) Anyway a bunch of people contributed, Vincent Cerf developed TCP/IP the protocol we all use, He use to work for MCI not sure anymore, a cool guy I might add. Beyond that there are a lot of people who contributed. Use the internet to find out more. a lot of stuff came out of Colleges
