What is a Internet cafe?
An Internet cafe or cybercafe
is a place where one can use a computer with Internet
access for a fee, usually per hour or minute; sometimes
one can have unmetered access with a pass for a day or
month, etc. It may or may not serve as a regular cafe
as well, with food and drinks being served. In South
Korea they are called PC bang. |

Cyber Cafe History by Wikipedia
The concept and name, Cybercafe, was invented at the
beginning of 1994 by Ivan Pope. Commissioned to develop
an internet event for an arts weekend at the Institute
of Contemporary Arts in London, Pope wrote a proposal
outlining the concept of a cafe with internet access
from the tables. The event was run over the weekend
of March 12-13 1994 during the 'Towards the Aesthetics
of the Future' event.
In June 1994, The Binary Cafe, Canada's first Internet
cafe, opened in Toronto, Ontario. During the 5th International
Symposium on Electronic Art, ISEA, in August 1994,
an establishment called CompuCafe operated in Helsinki,
Finland, featuring both internet access and a robotic
beer seller.
Inspired partly by the ICA event, a commercial establishment
of this type, called Cyberia, opened on September 1,
1994 in London, England. The first American Internet
cafe, named the Internet Cafe, opened in March 1995
in the East Village of New York City. |
Connect Internet Cafe in Patong
Connect Internet Cafe was open on the
1 April 1998 as one of the first Internet cafe on the
Island, and we are still open.
In the beginning we had dial up connection with modem
sharing. We were one of the first to get ISDN connection
on the Island.
Now (2006) we have a 1 Mbps broadband connection by
ADSL. Since early days we have LAN access in all rooms
and WiFi access in the common areas. |
