Communication - Part 1: A Brief History


Here is a video I thought everyone might enjoy. It shows communications as far back as egyptian times and includes such things as the invention of the telephone. Hope you enjoy this video. Thank you, Mary Ann Reday.

  2. This is a great find Mary. It just shows how we have become more social in life and how through the years we have improved as a civilization. Also able to have artefact's like this and able to learn from them is worth its weight in gold. This shows how great we have things now of days and also have a reliable and universal way to talk.

  3. This was a very interesting video. It was very interesting to learn that the Egyptians invented the first written language. I knew the hieroglyphs were old but didn't know they were the first. I was also unaware that the Romans established the first Postal Service. I thought it was interesting that paper was invented in 100 AD yest it took almost 1400 years more before the first printing press. All in all a very informative video showing just how far we've come with our communication.

  4. Great video and it really shows how communication progressed over time. It’s hard to believe that at one point there wasn’t even such thing as communication and that it had to be created. And to see what we have today, it’s hard to imagine what it’d be like without it in the past. It changes everything culturally.
