Communication Morse Code was invented by Samuel F. B Morse in the beginning of the 1890's. It started originally as an electric pulse but eventually it changed to an audio tone. Beeps and pauses made up the messages. It was an early radio communication and it revolutionized international communication. The Type Writer was invented by Christopher Latham Sholes in 1874. The first type writer was known as the "Sholes and Glidden Type Writter" and was manufactured by "Remington and Sons" (the gun company) At first it wasn’t very popular( no more than 5000 were sold) but it did found a new world wide industry. It also brought mechanization to the office space. The Telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell. It was a wire based electrical system, that completely surpassed Morse Code. It changed society as the world knew it. Of course it suffered a few technical problems at first, and there was some opposition, but it became so popular that almost everyone in the Western World owned a telephone. The first words spoken were ""Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you." which was Bell speaking to his assistant, Thomas A. Watson.
