Communication has greatly evolved over the years from the postal system established in 1775 to today's digital technologies. The postal system was the first form of communication but was slow, allowing sending of letters to only one person at a time. The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876, connecting people manually at first. Later, the internet was invented in 1969 as a network to share information among scientists and engineers, leading to the World Wide Web created by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989 to publish and link documents for scientists online, going public in 1991. Now, communication is much easier through instant calling, texting and online connections.

Communication has greatly changed over the years. The
first communication system was established in 1775. It was called the Postal System. The Postal System took time depending on how far the destination is. When you send the letter, you can only send it to one person at A time. Today, people call the Postal System “snail mail”. In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. In the late 1870’s phones were connected manually. The telephone was commonly called A rotary phone. How you called somebody on A rotary phone is by rotating the disk on the phone. Back then it was awfully hard to communicate. Soon, after that in the 1960’s the internet was invented. The exact date it was invented is October 29,1969. The long-term for internet is inner-system networking. The internet was made by dozens of pioneering scientists, programmers and engineers and they made, “information superhighway” as we know today. The first workable prototype of the internet came in the late 1960’s, and was A creation of ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network). Arpanet was founded in 1966. In 1989 Tim Berners-Lee invented World Wide Web or WWW. WWW was invented for scientists. WWW is not the internet. WWW went live in 1991. It went public in 1993. The World Wide Web’s byname is the web. Now we can communicate very easily. We can call or text in the blink of an eye. This is how I know communication has changed rapidly. I wonder how communication will be in the future? There might be A flying phone. Or even homographs so you will feel they are actually in your home.
