Analog services came first, as they were the primary means of communication and broadcasting before the advent of digital technology. Analog systems, such as traditional radio and television, transmitted signals in continuous waves. Digital services emerged later, utilizing discrete signals to improve the quality and efficiency of data transmission, leading to advancements in communication technologies.
Consider this:You want so signal your friend using a torch light. Now you might think there is only one way to signal to your friend by turning on and off the flashlight right? But actually there are more ways.1) Turning on and off the flashlight2) Dimming the torchlight and bringing it back to full shineSo here method 1) is the digital way to signal to your friend and method 2) is the analog way to signal to your friend.Difference: In method one its either full signal or null as in case of digital signal 0 or 1In method two there is always signal(torch is always glowing) but we are signaling by dimming the glow of light.cheers,...kamIn electronics, the term "digital" refers to circuits in which individual data are represented by a discrete set of voltages -- usually only two (i.e., either a "logic 1" or a "logic 0"). In this case, each datum is a binary entity called a bit. Data in the form of numbers other than 0 or 1 (e.g., 2, 365, 3.14159, etc.) are represented as patterns of bits.In analog circuits, each datum is encoded as a continuous voltage within a range. Such circuits are widely used in such application areas as audio electronics, radio, motor control, etc.Historically (c. 1960), analog computers were developed that competed with digital computers. However, digital circuits are at the heart of virtually all modern computers.
In 1986 the first disposable cameras where introduced. And in 1988, digital cellular phones and the Doppler radar where created.
HTML came first.

First there was analog. Then Digital came along and said 'Get you hands outta my face!' Digital then was born.
In terms of the history of the signal, it was the analog signal that came first. That doesn't mean that it can't still be used in conjunction with an analog signal in today's use.
Analog transmission came before digital ones

Originally all clocks were analog clocks that showed the passage of time by the change of something measurable. When digital clocks which displayed only numbers to show the time came into use, the phrase analog clock was used to refer to older types of clocks.
The first satellite program broadcast for Tv was the 1976 heavyweight boxing match by HBO. The first satellite dish was created in a garage the same year and was available to consumers in 1977.
The digital watch, which came before the digital clock, was first developed in 1972. The concept was developed by a watchmaking company called Hamilton.
Digital convertor boxes are meant for those who do not have newer TV sets with digital tuners built-in. The need for these came a few years ago with the digital changeover from the old analog signals. If you have cable or satellite as a provider, you do not need a converter at all. If you are currently using antenna TV and can actually see shows, then you do not need a box, you have a digital tuner already.
Digital clocks came out in the late 1950's. Use the link below to the related question.
The firts digital 35mm camera came out in 1984 when the digital 43.7mm came out too.
I'm pretty sure is the radio. :P
The first phone with a 10 mega pixel camera came out in 2006
