  For this assignment, I decided to pick the website https://www.apple.com/ .  1. Simplicity (Score: 10/10) I think it is pretty simple and minimalistic. Its front page does not have unnecessary design elements. All the buttons have a functional purpose. I think it is very easy for visitors to this website to find what they are looking for.  Colors: The creators of this website decided to use a monochromatic color scheme.

              The Internet has become an essential part of our lives. Now, most people cannot imagine life without this revolutionary invention. In 1957 the US Department of Defense was the first one that thought about reliable information transmission. It was necessary to create a message transmission system that, even in case of a nuclear war, would not fail. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency came up with the idea of ​​using the computer to receive and transmit information (Featherly). Very soon, the agency started creating and developing the first computer network. Four US universities were tasked with implementing the idea: the University of California in Los Angeles, the University of Utah, the University of Santa Barbara, and the Stanford Research Center.                In 1969, a talented group of scientists created a computer network called ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network), ...
