Paper Abstract: Discusses the history of the Internet, how it was created, its status at present, and its prospects for the future. The rapid growth of Internet technology and the low cost of computers are addressed as is the issue of how the Internet shapes human communication and interactions. Paper Introduction: The Internet Past Present and FutureIntroduction and Purpose The Internet has in relatively short order become a ubiquitouspresence in the lives of countless millions of business and personal userswho have become dependent upon its capacity for facilitating real-time virtual and almost instantaneous communication and data transmission Therapid proliferation of the technology underpinning the Internet and theincreased capacity of both businesses and individuals to purchase and userelatively low-cost computers and communications networks has made the so-called Information Technology IT revolution a reality This Text of the Paper: The entire text of the paper is shown below. However, the text is somewhat scrambled. We want to give you as much information as we possibly can about our papers and essays, but we cannot give them away for free.
