| Abstract: | Development of the global Internet has been phenomenal. It has grown from a small, closed, text-based computer network of a few thousand scientific and governmental users in the early 1980s to some 43 million Internet hosts in some 58,000 separate but interconnected networks supporting an open global network of an estimated 150 million Internet users in early 1999. During 1998, the last remaining "unconnected" countries established links to the Internet, turning it into a truly global network. |
