通讯工具演变时间表

在Digg上发现了这张时间表,展示了人类通讯从公元前490年到2008年奥运年的进化历程,写得很有意思,外国人很善于嘲讽现在。

比如这段:

490 BC
Pheidippides ran from Marathon to Athens to transmit the news of the victory over the Persians.
Signal was really bad back then: he died on the spot after delivering the message, according to Plutarch.

还有这段

1876
First successful telephone transmission. Graham Bell says “Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you” and Watson understands each word clearly. A century later, people would be “What? Say that again? Watson? Watson?” over cellphone lines.

Hi, I'm Chern. This is my personal blog. I'm currently working for a business consulting firm in Shanghai. I don't quite love my work though and is always seeking a way to escape. But I don't know wher to escape. Pity!

I'm not a coder nor a designer, however, I believe the quote "Code is poem" and weight algorithm and UI the same importance. I like Googel services and hope one day that Google can provide all the services I need. more abt. me...
