H@ppy Friday. This Sunday, 134 years ago, Alexander Graham Bell was granted a patent for the telephone [March 7, 1876 ] The history of the telephone is almost as complicated as today's cell phone plans...minutes, roaming, texting, and long-distance fees apply. In his first ever successful experiment, Bell spoke through the instrument to his assistant, Thomas Watson, in the next room, uttering these famous words: "Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you." Today, every time a new study is released on the number of landlines vs. cell phones in the U.S., the number of people who prefer or rely solely on cell phones creeps up and the number of landlines slips slowly. With this trend pushing the idea of a "home phone" towards the dustbin of history and having us all carry portable-communication-devices on the go, are we more connected with each other? Where are we adjusting, using these digit@living filters? |
