Pre-Web Vs. Now

In Ashlee Humphreys' book "Social Media", talks about the development from a telegraph to SMS text messages today. "To take another example, digital telephony was a technology developed in 1984 that allows a sender to encode a message and send it across a wireless signal to a receiver with a similar device, a phone. However, several forms can come out of this technology." (Humphreys)

The way we are able to communicate with almost anyone we want instantly. It used to take months to communicate or there was a lag on the connection. We can see a difference in speed, connection, and ease. We are still able to trace back technology of today to older ones that we built off of.

We can look into other genres and see a link between the development of old to new technology. We use old inventions to modify and create newer more advanced technology. We will keep on doing this, we will keep developing. The way technology seemed to surge in the last 100 years. Just building on top of other ideas.
