In 20 Years

Communication is forever changing. It has changed drastically within the last twenty years. New advancements in technology have allowed people to communicate in a faster and more convenient ways. Relatively new technological advancements like the radio, computer, and cell phones have all made getting into contact easier. Within the last twenty years, it has not only become for convenient but somewhat safer. You no longer have to solely rely on contacting through letters delivered on foot or by hand. So, possibly one of the ways in which communicating has drastically changed the most, is the time necessary to get a message across clearly. With things like the computer for example, we are able to communicate more effectively. The internet allows us to have access to social networking websites like Facebook, or MySpace, and websites like Oovoo and Skype which are web camera sites to communicate through video, allowing you not only to talk but to see each other while doing so. The cell phone is another advancement in communicating. With cell phones people can talk, text, and socialize on the internet. We can see and keep in close contact with family and friends with only the click of a few buttons. Status updates on social websites like AOL Instant Messaging, Twitter, or Facebook allow us to see our family and friend’s feelings and the things they go throughout the day.  Communicating has come a long way within the last twenty years. It will continue to advance as time goes on.
