Modern Tools of Communication

Nowadays people are more and more connected due to the dramatically rapid development of various kinds of communication tools. In my point of view, all of these communication implements can be categorized in three fields, papertool, teletool and cybertool, which are based on different departments or companies that relate to certain means of communication.

Papertool is a sort of communication tool which is under the management of department such as post office. The forms are usually letters and postcards, which are composed of paper. It is beyond that the papertool has the longest history, compared with other instruments, and since the civilization of human beings emerged, this kind of implement has been prevalent. However, in the contemporary society, papertool is not as widely used as it was on account of the conception of sustainable development, which proposes to save resources like trees or something that are the raw materials of papers. But in some essential business occasions, people still prefer to use it.

In the middle of the 20th century, the teletool came into being. It includes devices like telephones, mobile phones. People are able to contact each other through them with the help of telecom companies. The prevalence of this tool has soared up tremendously since the end of the 21st century. No matter where you go today, you can assert that there must be telephones which you can use to keep in touch with others.

Since the inception of the Internet, the world has changed a great deal. As one of the results, another kind of communication tools appears, that is, the cybertool. Cybertools, judging from the word, have something to do with computers. Today there are more and more people having preferences to use something like e-mails, facebook and MSN, all of which are developed by hi-tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and so on. It is said that one day the cybertool will replace the teletool as the most popular communication tool because of its costing less than other tools.

It is no doubt that nowadays we have more and more ways to communicate, and maybe sometimes we are confused by so many selections. When it comes to me, from my perspective, I think that no matter what kinds of tools you choose, the only thing you should care about is just that you can keep contact with your parents and your friends and thus you will feel much better. That is quite enough!
