Winston Churchill said, "To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often". Churchill was right on the money when he said that. Throughout history, those who change and improve are successful and those who remain stagnant fail. Technology has arguably advanced more in the past ten years than it has in any other decade in human history. One of the attributes of these advancements is the improvement of communication.
While the invention and improvement of cell phones is the unambiguous change in communication technology, there are many other changes that have started this revolution. The advancements in communication technology have enabled people to talk more frequently and communicate with each other even if they are on opposite ends of the earth. These ideas have been possible for a rather long time. However, in the past decade, people have been enabled to send an email while sitting on the hot sand in the desert, or talk face to face with a person 1,000 miles away. Social media such as Facebook or Twitter has given people the opportunity to share their life with the world all with one click of a button. Communication technology over the past ten years has had the greatest effect on the world than almost anything ever before.
As Winston Churchill said, "To improve is to change"; the world did just that through the advancement of communication. Because of these changes, people can communicate with one another with ease on the screen of a phone, computer, tablet, and many other devices.
