Best Answer

Alexander Graham Bell's invention of the telephone in 1876 rang in the era of talking at a distance. Innovators in the 20th century expanded the telephone's reach across continents and oceans, figuratively shrinking the world and connecting its citizens. Electronic switching systems and other technological advances helped customers place calls without the help of operators. By the year 2000, more than a billion people all over the world had gone wireless-using cellular technology to talk and deliver text and photos on super-lightweight telephones smaller than a deck of cards.
