TAYLORC09!



              TaylorC09- how did electricity change the way we communicate? it changed the way we communicate today because without electricity there would have never been the invention of the phone and even the cell phone today. people would be communicating like they communicated very many years ago                                 with speaking, singing, and body movements. if there was no electricity today there wouldn't be any computers to email, go on blogs, go on instant messangers, and go on websites (myspace,facebook,ect;). even if we didn't have electricity today there would still be mail, but it would take a while to get there. well way longer than it does now because cars run on batteries that get charged up by electricity. people would have to hand deliever letters or ride on bikes to get there. people's lives changed because people became more distant with eachother. this is because there was no need for them to go and visit eachother anymore to tell them something, because they could just call them on the phone. people went from sharing a phone with a couple of there neighbors, to having their own home phone that you had to turn to dial the numbers, to having push dial phones, to having cordless phones, to cell phones, and now some people dont even have house phones.

who really invented the phone ? everyone thinks that alexander grambell invented the first phone but.... he only partially can take credit for it. this man by the name of Phillipp Reis, a german man. he began to work on the phone in 1860. his phone idea didnt end up working though his telephone was only marginal. when alexander gram bells acaully ended up being successful and working. so they can both take credit for creating the first telephones.

I wonder what life would be like now if we didn"t have home phones/cell phones ? how about if we didnt have computers or blogs? well that would definiley be a big change for us.
