World Internet Day.. Recalling the achievements of the past and an eye on the future
October 29 is celebrated as the day of the internet, one of the most important inventions in the history of mankind.
No one on this day imagined what the internet would mean a few years later. Who could have imagined booking an entire overseas vacation by phone?.
Or can you send a message to reach other parts of the world in an instant? But now you can't even imagine a day without the internet.
The history that changed human life
World Internet Day, the world remembers the most important event of 1969, when the first e-mail was sent. At that time, the internet was called ARPANET, which stands on the network of the agency for Advanced Research Projects.
Charlie Klein, a programming student at the University of California, Los Angeles, was the first person to send the email. However, this event, which officially celebrates World Internet Day 1, began in 2005.
Why do we celebrate World Internet Day?
1. Recognize communication gaps
True, life without the internet is unthinkable anywhere, but many places in the world do not yet have an internet connection.
Reports indicate that only 10% of the surface of the Earth's population is connected to the terrestrial. Since it is a very small number, you need to publish your contacts so that you can communicate with more people.
2. Flexible communication solutions
The internet provides a fast connection and you can call from this corner of the world to another. We can talk to people from different countries and continents through letters, emails, and phone calls.
Now there are other ways to connect. Today, handwritten letters have their charm, but they are no longer limited to letters.
3. Social networks
The most important aspect or feature of the internet is social networks. Man is a social being and must be connected with society.
Thanks to the internet, the task has become easier. All you have to do today is send WhatsApp messages or make video calls. Today, everything is possible with just one click on the phone.
4. Positive use of the internet
The internet is used for a variety of purposes, from education to Entertainment. You can use this latter in several different and varied ways. Planning a whole trip, watching a concert or a movie on Netflix is all your choice.
There are some bad parts, but there are always two parts to the story. But this does not mean that we should not judge the internet as bad.
There are 100% risks in connection with the use of the internet, but there is also a 100% positive effect. These effects were conceived during the Corona 19 pandemic when the internet became the birth of the only means of communication.
The future
The future of the internet is still very close. Today, we can order commands from the network to turn on the lights, make calls and conduct conversations.
And we find in the Google search engine allows you to watch videos and some of the funny conversations between humans and Alexa or Siri.
There is also a Metaverse that allows the world to meet and feel without being physically present. There are still many improvements.

Although they are not part of the internet, robots will one day be part of the internet. Some people are afraid of this phenomenon, but others want to live it.
We have evolved with the internet, and what we could not imagine yesterday has become possible today and tomorrow will not be much different. Everything imaginable will become possible.
In honor of the World Wide Web on October 29, I remember that it started with one message and expanded to millions of messages per second.
Thanks to the internet, it is a day to appreciate what we have and think about the direction in which we are moving forward.
