The concept of "surfing the internet" was popularized by a person named Jean Armour Polly in the early 1990s. She was a librarian in New York who coined the term to describe the act of jumping from one website to another. Polly's contribution to internet culture has had a lasting impact, and her phrase is still in common use today.
