In 1957, after the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, President Dwight D. Eisenhower introduced the Advanced Research Projects Agency, or ARPA. Soon after, Dr. J.C.R. Licklider of MIT wrote the first recorded description of the social interactions that could be enabled through networking.1 This idea of "networking" was tossed around at MIT, UCLA, and at the RAND Corporation, which eventually led to ARPANET. Thanks to Licklider's expertise, he soon integrated ARPA from military use to private universities. From the early days back in the 60s, till the present, the Internet as we know it has been ever changing, ever since.
             Initially, the "internet" had only 4 nodes, or hosts. As of January 2002, there were 147, 344, 723 hosts.2 In 1991, "Father of the Internet", Timothy Berners Lee, and other researchers at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics made it possible to connect content throughout these networks using hypertext links. Prior to the "Web," local dial-up networks could be accessed for free which were known as bulletin boards, or in computer lingo, "BBS." Area residents could now engage in chat, play games, post messages, and view very basic web pages with other local residents. Bulletin Boards are often mistaken as the Internet. Bulletin Boards were simply an early form of using a computer's modem to dial-up other local bulletin boards. Much like the constant changing Internet, bulletin boards soon became forgotten history.
             From the early to mid nineties, the Internet has literally soared. In just June of 1993 there were merely 130 web sites; by 1994, there were 3,000. Presently, there are millions of web sites on the Internet. These web sites are categorized into domains based on the nature of their content. .com, .net, .edu, .mil, .org, and .int are the three level domains that are currently in use. We may soon se
