Welcome to Awakenings

Life IS history in the making. Every word we say, everything we do becomes history the moment it is said or done. Life void of memories leaves nothing but emptiness. For those who might consider history boring, think again: It is who we are, what we do and why we are here. We are certainly individuals in our thoughts and deeds but we all germinated from seeds planted long, long ago.

History of the Internet

It is hard to fathom sometimes that life did exist and thrive BEFORE the Internet. In today's society, communication is all about the net, social media and marketing. Cyberspace has become the place to be! 

Do you know how it all began? Here is a brief history in graphic format. As you peruse the diagram, notice it was not too long after its inception that it was attacked by its first virus, Creeper. From there, it has continued to evolve but not without continuous threats. Sound familiar? Nothing is safe not even in cyberspace!

  2. Wow! It is amazing how young the Internet really is, considering what a huge impact and influence it has on our lives today. It will be interesting to see if there is something else, that we have not heard of yet, which will have as a big impact on us in ten years time.

    Great post! Thanks for sharing.
