A lot of the notes and drawings were upside down. I think a lot more effort was missing when this was compiled.

Drivers of the Internet & Web Growth – 2 key drivers
*First key driver: Convergence of a number of factors :
Growth in personal computers – key to success of internet (laptops,
netbooks, ultrabooks)
Growth in local networks linking computers together within
businesses (wireless, wired, Bluetooth) – together have helped spread
the reach of internet to all users
Growth in global communications infrastructure (fxed lines, fbre-
optics, satellite technologies) – in turn supports internet
Growth in cellular technologies (3G/4G, multi-feature phones,
smartphones) – brings internet within reach to every individual with such
device
Advent of tablets that can connect wirelessly over cellular
networks
Growth of micro-chipped embedded products (fridges, cars,
cameras) – intelligent, can store data with other devices over internet
Continued growth in globalization – brings people together, sparks
competitiveness, results in research development
