Communication is one of the factors that characterize human society. The greater the distance, the greater the need for communication, therefore, throughout the development of mankind, data transmission systems are being improved.
The first means of communication in humans were light and sound signals. With the help of tom-toms or the smoke of fires, neighboring tribes let each other know about the approaching danger. Within the tribe, voice communication was enough. With the expansion of the human habitat and the development of intertribal ties, the communication system was also improved in parallel.
Benefits of mobile communication
In the zero years of this century, mobile communications began to penetrate the territory of Russia. The first mobile phones could not have global significance in human life due to their insufficient prevalence. Mainly members of the same family could communicate, having taken measures to create a mobile intra-family connection. The main advantage of mobile communications at that time was the ability to track each other's location and keep in touch.
With the introduction of mobile phones in the life of the overwhelming number of Russians, mobile communications have become the main means of communication not only between individuals, but also for individuals with organizations, regardless of the proximity of a landline phone and a settlement.
How people lived before mobile phones
The need for communication of a man of the 20th century was satisfied by a whole set of communication means. The oldest of these was the post office, for which an entire industry was created. Today the epistolary genre has lost its informational meaning and is the prerogative of either romantics or residents of completely remote settlements. But they also face a problem - it is quite difficult to find a mailbox today without knowing its exact location.
In case of emergency communication, there was a round-the-clock telegraph, from which it was possible to send an urgent telegram and be sure that the information would be delivered to the address within an hour. The long-distance telephone also worked around the clock, in addition, there was a call system for people who did not have fixed telephones. With the advent of mobile communications, these technologies have been eliminated, and the possibility of using these services for people without a mobile phone has disappeared.
In the absence of mobile communication, there were payphones on the streets of cities, from which it was possible for a small fee to call any number within the village. Emergency phone numbers were on everyone's lips and calls to them were free. Another thing is that you had to run around the city in search of a working machine, but now they have disappeared from the streets, so emergency calls are available only from a mobile.
