EOTO Presentation Impacts

    After watching all of the presentations I enjoyed learning about the history of some of the most revolutionizing technologies in communication. All of the presentations were executed very well and were very interesting and important to understand especially in a world full of technology. Like many, I use technology every single day and after watching the presentations I realized how recent the development of technology has revolutionized. The beginning of communication and the most recent inventions show how far we have come. All of the presentations worked well with each other and convey how technology is ever-changing and the possibilities are endless.

 The most fascinating presentation in my opinion was the history of carrier pigeons. I never realized how significant it played a role in communication during that time. The whole concept of carrier pigeons as well as the process of how the pigeons were able to learn the routes was interesting. I loved this presentation because it shows the earliest times in the timeline of communication technology and the extreme development from this technique of communication to SMS messaging and emails. 

I learned the most during the internet/WorldWideWeb presentation and found this technology development to be interesting as well. Since I never used the internet during its early times of operation, I never understood the process and how different it was to how it is today. I use the internet every single day and as we get more dependable on technology, the internet is starting to replace things such as books, dictionary, magazines, tv, etc.
