Obviously, the telephone has changed society after its invention. However, it has definitely come a long way from its beginning, when Alexander Graham Bell communicated for the first time on the first one. Now, we have cellphones, cordless phones, and payphones. If we did not have telephones today, then communication that was quick and reliable would be difficult over long distances. Since phones are more common than computers, people would probably buy more computers to communicate through email instead. Or, people might find other ways of communicating over distances -- something similar to a phone, perhaps. Businesses would be affected by a lack of quick communication, however. If we still had to rely on mail sent through the postal service, then no one would know what was going on in other places in the world until months after it happened. We probably wouldn't be able to wage wars in different countries well, and any attack on our country would be met with slow relief. National disasters would also not get quick aid (although our country is already like that...Katrina).

∙ 14y agothe telephone was answered by tyler from bridgeport and that changed everything.
Before the invention of the telephone you had to send a letter, the delivery could take weeks to get to his destiny. Now with the invention of the telephone you can just call that person and communicate with him or her. Telephone keeps families connected when they are apart, for example when the men had to go to war or went to different states
