'''Jamboree on the Internet''', known by its acronym '''JOTI''', is an international [[Scouting]] activity held annually. Participants, through the use of designated Chats from all over the world, can contact their fellow Scouts by means of the [[Internet]]. Common communication methods include ScoutLink (IRC), e-mail, and VOIP. This provides the Scouts with a means of learning about fellow Scouts from around the world. JOTI operates alongside JOTA (Jamboree on the Air) and is an official event of the World Organization of the Scout Movement.

JOTI was pioneered in 1995 by Queanbeyan Rovers whilst one Rover, Norvan Vogt was on a student exchange in the Netherlands, with the home crew in Australia co-ordinated by Brett Sheffield. They connected [[Putten]], Netherlands and [[Queanbeyan]], Australia with dedicated [[IRC]] servers.<ref>Walker, B: ''Calling Home'', page 4. Queanbeyan Age, 23/10/1995.</ref> In November 1996 the [[World Scout Committee]], noting that Scouting already had a considerable presence on the Internet, and that there was already an informal and rapidly growing Jamboree on the Internet, decided that JOTI should become an official international Scouting event, and that it should be held on the same weekend as the Jamboree on the Air (JOTA).{{citation needed|date=January 2017}}
