29 October 2016: International Internet Day

International Internet Day is celebrated worldwide, every year on 29th of October. Since the year 2005 the International Internet Day has been famously celebrated to commemorate a momentous day in the history of telecommunications and technology.
This was the event of the sending of the first message, first electronic message which was transferred from one computer to another in 1969.

  • This was situated in California, in the USA. The International Internet Day is also an on-line project germinating from the society, of the society and for the society.
  • The International Internet Day project is open to everyone and anyone just as access to the internet is open and free for everyone.
  • The International Internet Day thus celebrates this grand democratic fervor which in essential is linked to this idea of liberation, where everyone is afforded an equal opportunity and an equal advantage to share of services, which connect the world to each other.
  • At the time when history was being made, Internet was known as ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network). This was the year of 1969 when Charley Kline, a student programmer at the UCLA transmitted the first ever message on 29th of October in 1969.  
  • The Internet is a worldwide, publicly accessible series of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching, using standard IP (Internet Protocol).
  • Now Internet has become one of the most important part of our life.
  • Most of us cannot think of spending one day without internet. Internet has made our lives much easy.
