After watching these five YouTube Videos relates to this chapter, there are three things stood out for me. First of all, in the video, “Telephone History ‘A Story Without End’ 1950 AT&T ”, the project, which is the workers underlaid the ground with a cable was really impressive me. It is a great project because this underground cable let people have a chance to communicate with others through a telephone at that time. Except it, this project is really hard to complete because the underground cable throughout very long, which is from the Denver to the San Francisco. Indeed, as these underground lines, people could communicate with others from a long distance even though the “long distance call” has to …show more content…
Moreover, the second thing that stood out for me is from the video, “Technology and Communication Through the Years”. This video divided to three parts, and shown me how the technology change our communication method. That is not the main point, which make me surprise. Surprisingly, the original telephone had no buttons or dial at that time, and you had to pick up the handset and ask an operator to make the connection. It is stood out for me because I never know the design of telephone was not as convenient as today. Also, from the development of telephone, I learned that a design is not have to perfect at the beginning, but we have to improve it in next step.

While in this video, people can use telephone to have a “machine to machine” communication in order to find data more convenient. It is sure that the method of communication changes the business a lot. It is resonated with me because I think it is the same situation of today. For example, people can communication with other through the Internet, and it is convenient than using a telephone because you just can talk to one person by the telephone, while, you can communicate with lots of people at the same time through the Internet. Also, we can find information we want easily just type some key word on the Internet. All in all, I totally agree the new way of communication makes our business become more and more
