How Communications Has Changed The World

It is a "network of networks" that consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic, business, and government networks, which together carry various information and services, such as electronic mail, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked web pages and other resources of the World Wide Web (WWW).

Morse Code has been in use for 160 years, the longest of any encoding system ever used. The telegraph, the invention that required the creation of Morse Code, was developed in the 1830’s and the 1840’s by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail. This revolutionized long distance communication. Morse then developed a code, Morse Code, that allowed messages to be sent using the telegraph. This was a turning point in the war was to be fought. Now individuals hundreds of miles away could make key decisions in battle such as, where to push men, if reinforcements are needed, or if retreat was necessary. The telegraph and Morse Code completely changed the way war was fought and the elements it set out are still present today.

Throughout history, there are key inventions such as the telephone and the computer that transcended the way people communicate and relay information with each other. The invention that started this wave of faster and faster communication, the telegraph, proved to be revolutionary, paving way to many of these efficient methods of communication in the United States. During the late 19th century, the United States faced significant transformations culturally and socially with the help of the Telegraph. The telegraph proved to play a significant role in the United States’ Civil War, improving the way the military was planning and executing its strategies. This proved to be even more impressive, because of the adversities military telegraphers

Communication is a great part of modern history. It has changed a lot since last second world war. Everything today just because of communication. Without communication, we are a just statue of the moment now. But the revolution didn’t happen so fast. It’s the result of resources and dedication of human being. As communication starts with language, therefore, we can say that the changes of communication just start from the language.

In the start of WWII that nations came up with many ways to communicate to each other without being intercepted by the enemy.Some ideas/inventions used during World War II included foot, mounted, motorcycle, automobile, airplane, homing pigeons, and the messenger dog. Along with physically going to deliver a message they also had made visual messages. Which included flags, panels for airplanes, lights, and pyrotechnics. But when they didn't want to use those ways to signal messages they would send the message electronically. Which included telephone, telegraph service, and the printing telegraph.

How has communication changed in the twenty years? Communication has change in many different forms in this past years. People inventing new technology that can provide us different resources of communication with our distance families and friends. One of these devices that help us communicate are the cell phones.

The telegraph was invented in 1844 , and was the technological advance of it’s time. Today we use phones, but back then the telegraph was the telephone. Since this was a technological advance, President Lincoln used the telegraph the send messages to his generals during the Civil war. Within a few years the country was connected by a network of telegraph lines. With all the people having telegraphs, people could send messages from far distances. And almost immediately the messages would get to the receiver.

These messages were sent by tapping out a special code for each letter of the message with a telegraph key. The telegraph changed the dots and dashes of the code into electrical impulses and used telegraph wires to transmit them. This code became known as Morse Code. Because of the telegraph, messengers no longer had to travel long distances to report information; instead, telegraphs were used to transfer information quickly and efficiently. The first telegraph message was sent from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, Maryland in 1844. In 1851, the United States had over 50 telegraph companies, most of them controlled by the Magnetic Telegraph Company. A telegraph line was laid across the Atlantic Ocean from the United States to Europe in 1866. Morse Code allowed for ships at sea to communicate over long distances using large lights. In World War II, it greatly improved communication speed. Naval ships were able to communicate with their bases and provide critical information. War planes also used Morse Code to detail enemy ships, bases, and troops. Although the telegraph drifted into obscurity, it laid the foundation for the communication revolution that led to the telephone, the fax machine, and the

Before the invention of the telegraph in 1844 by Samuel Morse and his colleagues, news and messages traveled at a much more laborious and protracted rate. While businesses and individuals could communicate by interpersonal communication through

The reading I will be analysing is The Humanisation of Media by Robert G Picard. Robert G Picard is a leading academic expert on media businesses and media policy. Robert is known for being the father of media economics studies. The issues he talking about overcoming the limits of mass communication. Another interesting issue he is talking about is the how technology of social media changes the way we communicate.

The fact is the world is trying to move past the restraints that create inefficient business and communication. Information technology provides a means to move beyond the slow and financially consumptive methods of doing business. The network society is the framework in which these practices can be implemented. As time goes by, technology is becoming more and more a fundamental component of living in this world. Unless a given society, community or business stays on the forefront of technological innovation, it will be left behind, only to grow further and

In today’s world Internet has become one of the most important mediums of communication. It has become the lifeline of our survival. It has removed the entire social, economic and physical barrier and has immense effect on our day to day activity.

The conversation of whether modern technology has either crippled the “traditional” form of communication or has simply modified and enhanced improvement on communication between people, has been debated about since the first “advanced” cell phones (smart phones) such as (blackberry’s, iphones, and androids) were released. Throughout the 19th century, telephones were becoming popularized around the world (or nationwide), while the telegrams were (slowly) decreasing in the formality of communicating, and people began to (gradually) adapt to these “new technologies”, making it easier and simpler to get in contact with one another, rather than depend on writing a letter, (which would usually take weeks or even a month to get a response back from), or sending a telegram. According to Chelsea Henderson, author for her article on “The History of Communication Technology: Telephone”, she looks at how the forms of communication varied very greatly between different cultures in different parts of history, such as mentioning how Christopher Columbus and his crew would send letters, (Henderson) and glancing over how the Native Americans would use smoke as a way to communicate between one another, (Henderson) and discusses how the telephone had came about into the market place and how it revolutionized the 19th century, advancing them with a variety of similar products close to

The term "Internet" (often referred to as "global network", "global network" or "Network") - implies a global system of arbitrarily interconnected computer networks, which are used to store and freely exchange data, information and knowledge. The information space that constitutes the Internet is the physical basis of the world wide web (WWW - World Wide Web) and many other data transmission systems [58, p.
