  • Participate in Creating Their Own Content Through Message Boards and Online Chat Areas
    Media Selling, 4th Edition Chapter 20 – The Internet By Vincent Thompson and Paul Talbot As an advertising medium, the Internet is complex and measured differently from traditional media. Also, online advertising buys are often difficult to execute and to implement. So why are marketers switching billions of dollars to the Internet? Because the Internet is one of the most disruptive innovations of our time and represents the most fertile environment ever for marketer-consumer interaction. Disruptive technologies transform societies – the way people live, think, and conduct business – and the Internet has been as disruptive and transformative as movable type, the telegraph, airplanes, and the computer have. The History of the Internet Most historians agree that the birth of the Internet occurred in 1969 when computer scientists from the government and universities linked large mainframe computers together with the objectives of sharing data and distributing information over a network. This groundbreaking work came from a desire to ensure the safety of government data during natural disasters or war and to allow university researchers the ability to share information. Prior to this project, networks were set up like phone systems with information traveling through vulnerable centralized hubs. With the invention of the distributed network, information could be simply routed along any of the networks’ many connections until it found its way to its final destination. Aiding in this concept was the use of packets. Packets allow small chunks of digital data to be sent into the network independently and then reassembled at their final destinations. Once the initial computers at UCLA and Stanford Universities were connected in 1969, other Universities followed suit and with each addition the network gained more power and provided more value to its users.i Over the next five years scientists developed cornerstone technologies such as e-mail, the ability to access the network remotely, and the ability to host multiple chat sessions.

    The first inside story of the world's largest Internet company. My Life at AOL Buy The Complete Version of This Book at Booklocker.com: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/992.html?s=pdf Chapter One: Is This a Career for You? My job was so free of interest, it would have made a great loan. It was thus I found myself one Sunday in the summer of 1988, sitting on the sugar-maple carpeted floor of the one- bedroom Alexandria, Virginia high-rise apartment I shared with my sister, thumbing through the copious classified ad pages of Sunday’s Washington Post. I was looking for that job description that would save me from my mind-numbing gig as a proofreader at a large D.C. law firm. I'd seen the ad and it looked bizarre but intriguing: "Writer/Producer We're Quantum Computer Services, an innovative leader in providing interactive online services to the home computer market. We're searching for a creative, flexible individual to sharpen our competitive edge in the educational/entertainment market. As Writer/Assistant Producer, you will write promotions and program online events, new services and newsletter material; coordinate a monthly events calendar; maintain live data base areas; and develop and produce online contests. You may qualify if you're a real self-starter with natural promotional talents who loves details…thrives on deadlines...communicates clearly...and has a B.A. in Communications, Journalism, or Advertising. Some computer experience is a definite plus. If you have the spark we're looking for, let us hear from you now in writing..."; My Life at AOL Copyright 2000 Julia L.
