I was 12 when I first laid my eyes on a desktop computer in small town India in 1990.

I remember waking up to the ringing of the dial-up Internet modem and falling asleep waiting for my father to move over and give me a chance on that magical machine.

I used to love Sesame Street and my favorite character was Cookie Monster.

From being a privileged Internet user in the 90’s to a web addict in the 21st century, the use of Internet has come a long way.

The 1970s brought about a technological revolution with the birth of the Internet, the same Internet that connects us and brings the world on our fingertips.

Vinton Cerf’s experience with Network Protocols brought him in contact with Robert Kahn, who was working on designing a more advanced network protocol for ARPANET

TCP/IP is still the standard protocol used on the Internet today. I never knew earlier that those two wires that connected the world actually had a name.
