- Other examples include papyrus and codex.
Industrial Age (1700s-1930s)
- The printing press played a key role in disseminating information.
- The telegraph and telephone revolutionized communication by allowing real-time communication.
- Other inventions during this age are the typewriter (1800) and the telephone (1876).
- Steam power aided the development of machine tools and helped establish iron production.
Electronic Age (1930s-1980s)
- The transistor allowed mass media to take form.
- The transistor radio and television (1941) are prominent examples of early electronic devices.
- Electronics greatly influenced various media forms.

- Devices in the IoT (smart home devices) are equipped with internet connectivity, sensors, and other hardware for communication and remote control.
- It's an extension of everyday objects with connected computing devices, used for data analysis, and useful information.
- Everyday devices like light bulbs, thermostats can now be connected via a wireless network, enabling automation and remote control using smartphones or apps.
