COINING ‘SURF’ THE NET
Sometimes we forget to wonder about
the most common things that we do, like why we use the term ‘surf’ the net.
The term ‘surfing’ the Internet
was coined in 1992 by a librarian, Jean Armour Polly, who goes by the popular
name ‘Net Mom’ and also owns a domain by the same name.
