The original internet was created as a means for US institutions and other research facilities to share their research data more rapidly than could be done through postal mail or phone conversations. This network had a very low bandwidth capability, a fraction of what is available today. At that time, it's only capabilities were the passage of text messages(the original email), and transferring small files.
