Where does the internet come from?

It should be helpful to read about TCP/IP first.

Really nice description of Client / Server web service -- BUT the OP's question is WHERE does (the info) come from?

IMO this topic is W A Y off base from the topic.

When a mommy internet net and a daddy internet love each other very much, they make a baby internet.....

Please. You didn't even link a picture. Lol

Alright! It came from Uber.

What does Marcellus Wallace look like?

Way too playful for a tech site, so I'll decline to read other comments so off topic -- have fun :sigh:

"The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. Originally funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network."

It's a packet switching network, the question has been answered. I personally detailed the software and hardware methods ^ up there.. If people can't get it, Quora specializes in answering the impossible.

It's a bit graphic, but ok



I think that's a 01000101.

Daddy Internet should take Mommy Internet out to get wired so they can get all plugged up.

A neighbor asked me the same question ,

Ok, let me re word my question. Everybody has a connection to their computer/device allowing them access to the internet. INSIDE that connection is usually a copper wire that has carries I guess you'd say lotsa 10101110000100111100010 , that should of been how I worded it but I didn't. I hope this clears it up. Where do the 1's & 0's come from?

The 0's and 1"s you refer to is the eight bit per byte binary code system. The eight bit per byte Binary code system was written by Grace Hopper for the first truly automated data processing computer system that used logic to process data like a decision tree that will perform alternative operations depending on variable inputs, and it was based on vacuum tubes back then with eight vacuum tubes being a byte. Vacuum tubes became transistors which became silicon chips. Each letter of the alphabet, number or punctuation mark has a unique set of 0's and 1's that define it and is stored in the rapid access memory. All the information in any computer RAM is a series of 0's and 1's. All electronic signals have to have an origin and I guess you can use the analogy of morse code being the standard for communication before the advent of electronic devices. Google Binary Code on wikipedia and Grace Hopper.
