I thought that was an interesting question.  I looked for some kind of answer and found that this on wicki. "In the 1960s, computer researchers, J. C. R. Licklider and Robert W. Taylor pioneered calls for a joined-up global network to address interoperability problems." which how it describes the beginning research for the internet.

Actually the internet was an old military communication network that had become obsolete. It was turned over to civilian control when the updated network was in place. Since then it has grown exponentially and has exceeded any and all expectations. It has become an uncontrollable source of knowledge, communication, worldwide news, entertainment and, not the least, commerce. Can you say "revolutionary"?
