Broadband - The Changing Face Of Communication

The rise of internet technology in recent years has transformed the way we communicate with each other. Staying in touch with friends in other countries has switched from hand-written letters that could take weeks to arrive to e-mails and instant messages exchanged in nano-seconds.

Coupled with the recent boom of social networking sites, it has never been easier to keep in touch with family and friends.

Face-to-face conversation has, for some, been replaced with text messaging and voice chatting via broadband technology. But the telephone hasn't become completely obsolete. Rather, it has been upgraded, with broadband phone lines now becoming more readily available.

Internet phone clients such as Skype use broadband to offer the opportunity to chat with other Skype users for free, while also giving their users the option of a credit system where the client can call landlines and mobiles, all from the comfort of our computer chairs.

Even mobile phones have become a platform for communicating digitally, with instant messaging and VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) services now more readily available. Some have tapped further into the market and offered cheap broadband deals along with their phone services, further enhancing our digital experience.

With the release of multi-format devices such as the iPhone, users can now access a range of services - including web browsers and chat clients - with broadband providers now offering a variety of packages to suit your needs.

Whether you're a seasoned gamer or a total novice, the vast range of cheap broadband providers available on the market ensures that there will be deals available to suit your experience level - and your pocket.

Even the way you read the morning paper is about to change. The recent launch of Kindle - Amazon's new palmtop reading device - is sure to change the way we buy and view books. This handy palmtop device downloads information and text via wireless technology.

The introduction of this new gadget comes at a time when broadband technology is becoming more accessible, with forecasters predicting that there will be over 21 million broadband customers in the UK by the year 2012.
