Internet History


Internet was found for the American Defense Ministry and for the usage of some universities. ARPANET was found in 1970. ARPANET was just includes 15 computers which are connected to each other and was closed to public service. In 70's the idea of "internet" was developed and e-mail has been found. When the Queen of England sent the first e-mail the internet became more popular. At the 80's the number of the "host" was just about "1000". World Wide Web as we know "www" was published in 1991. After 1994 the banks and companies started to open their virtual branches on the internet. Governments and many other organization groups have opened their web sites. After those developments, with the commercials on the internet people started to realize howthe internet is important. A whole new understanding of marketing and economics was born by the internet.





Now i'm going to talk about some people who have become celebrity from internet. The person which i'm going to talk is Tavi. Tavi Gevinson is a girl who is 13 years old. She was on the cover on the Love and Pop Magazines. She's just started to high school. Her blog address is http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/. The blog's name is "Style Rookie"She is wathcing the catwalks in the first row and she is hanging out with Marc Jacobs and many other fashion gods.

In my personal idea i don't find appropriate to put a 13th year old girl on the front row of a couture show. I think she is really talented but, i think this kinds of behaviors may encourage other children's to open their own blogs. They may think that they can do anything to be known by the world and this could only be beneficial for the people who are abusing the kids through the internet. Maybe Tavi can be lucky but, not all the kids who opens a blog can not be that lucky.


Next person is Lauren Luke. She is a make up artist and she published her own videos on the "youtube". She has selling her own make up kits on eBay and she decided to put her own make up videos on the you tube. According to Wikipedia "Her YouTube channel, Panacea81, has 60 million views and over 300.000 subscribers since her first upload on July 22, 2007. She is now has her own brand. She is selling her brands on her own website.





The last subject i want to mention is a new word. Nowadays there is a new term come into our dictionaries. The term "infomania" has been used since the 1980s. Infomania is used for people who are can't live without the internet. The Wikipedia has explained it as " Infomania is the debilitating state of information overload, caused by the combination of a backlog of information to process (usually in email), and continuous interruptions from technologies like phones, instant messaging, and email. It is also understood as distraction caused by the urge to check email, text messaging and other sources of information, which causes the person to show symptoms to neglect other, often more important things - duties, family, etc. (For instance, a typical symptom of infomania is that of checking email frequently during vacation.)".



Maximum number of days I could live without the internet is three. After the third day, my hands start to shaking and i immediately start to looking for a place that i could access to internet. If you are a person like me than nowadays people are calling us "infomaniac". I know that Baran is an infomaniac just like me.

He and i have a disease, people may say "infomaniac" to us but i prefer to call us just "obssessed with the internet"
