INTERNET E L'E-COMMERCE

The internet started in the 60s, when the American Defence Department wanted an extremely safe way of sending messages in case of nuclear attack.

From the 1960s to the 1990s the Internet was used primarily by the Defence Department and by researchers in industry and universities to connect separate computers and to send e-mail messages.
All that changed in the mid-1990s with three major developments:
•    The birth of the World Wide Web (WWW or “the Web”);
•    Hypertext;
•    Graphical browsers.
