Some website in the middle of nowhere on the internet said:
In ancient Israel, it came to pass that a trader by the name of Abraham Com did take unto himself a young wife by the name of Dot. And Dot Com was a comely woman, broad of shoulder and long of leg. Indeed, she had been called Amazon Dot Com.
She said unto Abraham, her husband, "Why doth thou travel far from town to town with thy goods when thou can trade without ever leaving thy tent?"
And Abraham did look at her as though she were several saddle bags short of a camel load, but simply said, "How, Dear?" And Dot replied, "I will place drums in all the towns and drums in between to send messages saying what you have for sale and they will reply telling you which hath the best price.
And the sale can be made on the drums and delivery made by Uriah's Pony Stable (UPS)."
Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot have her way with the drums. The drums rang out and were an immediate success. Abraham sold all the goods he had at the top price, without ever moving from his tent.
But this success did arouse envy. A man named Maccabia did secret himself inside Abraham's drum and was accused of insider trading.
And the young man did take to Dot Com's trading as doth the greedy horsefly take to horse flesh.
and, before very long, there were many others and They were called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich Dominican Siderites, or NERDS for short.
And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new riches and the deafening sound of drums,
that no one noticed that the real riches were going to the drum maker, one Brother William of Gates, who bought up every drum company in the land. And indeed did insist on making drums that would work only with Brother Gates' drumheads and drumsticks.
Dot did say, "Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken over by others." And as Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel,
(or as it came to be known "eBay" ) he said, "we need a name that reflects what we are," and Dot replied, "Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators." "YAHOO", said Abraham. And that is how it all began, It wasn't Al Gore after all.

How REALLY start? Well... It was a project of the US Army in 1957... After it universities added to the project and in 1991 the www (world wide web) is created, that give access to join to every computer in the world. ;)

EDIT: be warned, my summary is REALLY short. I forgot to wrote a lot of things.

Al Gore invented it, right? ^_~

The internet as we know it today was created by Tim Berners-Lee who created the HTML Launguage and the HTTP protocol. The TCP/IP protocols were a important part too.

o_O... Only Admins can lock topics, silly. Anyway, didn't Bill Gates create Microsoft or something?

True, but Mystic always write "LOCK" when locks a thread. ;) Hovewer, the first time that I did the joke... Worked!!! :?
 
And for the kids who now want to know what... uh, the questionable term above means, it's the act of a slave disturbing their master. Yes. Since slavery's been abolished in the US since the 1860s, this now only happens in plays.

However, most people are offended by the term, so never, ever use it. 'Kay?

Okay, I covered your rear bigboi. You owe me.

On-topic, amusing parody.
 
Wrong!
It's the act of taking your hand and *shot millions of times with a machine gun*
