Motion Pictures
In 1910 Thomas Edison developed the first talking motion picture. This 8 second astonishment came immediately after the first silent motion picture. This, however, was not the beginning of television; these images were simply made by running thousands of transparent filmpieces infront of a light: a projector. Although this advancement did not significantly advance communications, it would eventually cuase the television. This in turn would lead to news reports, quicker communication to the public from governent officials, and pure entertainment. Television, by far the greatest advancement in communicaion in this century (and possible all of time), would develop into screens for computers, which would contain the internet, video communications, and youtube.

Without television there would be no Jack Bauer, and without Jack Bauer the world would be a terrible place to live... Anyway, do you know what words were said in the first talking movie?
