language and technology

Alexander Graham Bell's notebook entry of 10 March 1876 describes his successful experiment with the telephone. Speaking through the instrument to his assistant, Thomas A. Watson, in the next room, Bell utters these famous first words, "Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you."

This shows the creation of an eaiser way to keep in contact with friends, now that facebook and social networking has been incoperated with phones it is easier to keep in contact with everyone you assosiate with and eaisier to chat to new people.This can also be a bad thing as it can influence and fuel bullying and/or threatening or innapropriate behaviour.

Alot of issues can also be formed because it is easier to segregate people and easier to comment on things that are happening, tjhis can be extreamly upsettig for some people and in certain cases the people on the recieving end of the harrassment decide to end their lives.

Language has changed also there are now more abbreviations, such as 'lol' or 'lmao', technology has formed a new language and now this language is beinmg incorperated in to peoples speech and influences their idiolect daily.
