For some people, shopping online has become a part of the norm(準則). For others, the prospect of making Internet purchases is a scary one. However, since the early 1990s, online shopping has emerged into(出現) every corner of life.
對于一些人而言,網上購物早已司空見慣,而對于其他人而言,網上購物卻是一種令人害怕的行為。無論如何,它從20世紀早期便開始出現在我們生活的方方面面了。
In 1990, Tim Berners Lee created the World Wide Web Browser. Charles Stack created the first online book store in 1992, two years before Jeff Bezos began Amazon. Other advances took place in 1994 such as Online Banking. After that, the next big development was the opening of an online pizza shop by Pizza Hut. During that same year, Netscape introduced SSL encryption (加密) to enable encryption over the data transferred online, which has become essential for online shopping. In 1995, Amazon expanded its online shopping, and in 1996, eBay opened up for online shopping as well. From then on, online shopping becomes more and more popular.
Tim Berners Lee于1990年創建了萬維網瀏覽器。Charles Stack在1992年創建了第一個網上書店,比Jeff Bezos創建的亞馬遜早了兩年。網上銀行也在1994年得以實現。在那之后,一個較大的飛躍便是必勝客網上比薩店的開業。也是在同一年里,美國Netscape公司引進了SSL加密術對網絡的數據交換過程進行加密。這為網絡購物的實現打下了技術基礎。1995年,亞馬遜擴大了其網上店鋪,并且在1996年,易趣網也開始了其網上購物業務。從那以后,網購就越來越流行了。
