From tablet to telegram to telephone to cell phone

We have come a long way since the time of the caveman. No longer do we transcend messages by voice or paper. Now we have a modem that can transcend messages through air and space. it wasn't that long ago when society was given its first cabled telephone. But we have advanced at a much quicker pace then what society can handle. One generation grew up without knowing the computer and the next one knows it like they know the back of their hand. You are supposed to learn from your elders but in the case of technology our elders are learning from us. I for one am not surprised by this change. I grew up knowing technology and watching it grew so I am accustomed to it and being more versatile to adapt to the changes. These changes are beckoned from the need to find efficiency. Back in the old days, the average college student would have to write a twenty page paper by hand, making the work so much harder. Now we can do things in the snap of a finger... well, almost.

  1. no. and it doesn't sound as stupid as that. cavemen most likely drew in the sand or just shouted as loud as possible. who knows?
