Well, Before it Existed in Reality, Isaac Asimov Accurately Predicted the Internet

And we all know that Asimov also seemed to have an idea of what the future looked like, if anyone familiar with I, Robot could attest.

But as it turns out, he also had an inkling about the internet, well before it ever became a reality.
