How we communicate is a rhyme of history that current technology brings back to life. It is so amazing how technology such as Skype and web cameras still allows for face to face conversations. Communication and interaction still can occur when the communicators are hundreds of miles apart from each other. Both Skype and web cameras reminds me of a devised version of the telephone that was invented by Alexander Graham Bell. These two technologies not only allow us to hear what each person says, but we are also allowed to see each other and attach files/documents to be shared among the communicators.

As a child, every time we would talk about what the future would be like, we always thought we would have video phones. Now we are coming closer to having that ability in every household. I personally don't like the idea because I get all dressed up to go out in public, but I'm the total opposite when I get home! I don't want everyone to be able to see what I look like when I'm lounging around the house:)
ReplyDeleteKiana,
ReplyDeleteI totally understand. Do you think that video phones invades individuals privacy? I am sure that we will have the option to allow or not allow individuals to have access to be able to view.
