SUMMARY
With the passage of time men has advanced in technology in fulfilling his needs and desires. After the mechanical evolution world is now living in evolution of Informational Technology. Mechanical evolution innovate means of transportation whereas Information Technology invented a new way of communication called Internet.

Professor Kleinrock demonstrated sending of messages from University of California to Stanford Research Institute by using ARPANet (Advanced Research Project Agency Network). Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) developed and supported research projects in 1970 whose focus was on communication. In 1973 Robert Elliot ’Bob’ Kahn with Vint Cerf invented TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) / IP (Internet Protocol) which is still the heart of Communication protocol in Internet. In 1989 web technician created World Wide Web (WWW) and in 1990 it was opened for unlimited public use.
