Communication

Communication over the past 20 years has changed a lot. Twenty years ago, if you wanted to have a conversation with someone that lived in a different state, then you’d have to dial the number on a phone and see if the person would pick up. You might have also needed to write a letter and send it through the mail most likely wait about a couple of weeks in order for the person to reply if they lived in a different state or country. Now however, computers and cell phones have revolutionized communication. With social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, we no longer have to call people if we want to talk to them. We merely have to send them a “Tweet” or write on their wall. People can now easily communicate by talking or texting through their cell phone. Before it was common that you just used house phones, but now you can choose from a variety of cell phones and companies. House phones as well have improved. They have a built in caller id to make it easier for you to know who is calling your house. They are also way much smaller than before. They have also invented Bluetooth for cell phones. This helps for those that are driving or for those that always have their hands occupied at work. With the way communication has changed, our life has been made easier.
