History of Communication Technology

I plan to illustrate this:

Possiilities

The possibilities in the near future using modern technologies to find different ways to communicate seem endless and exciting me.
In the last 50 years weve seen email take off from simple ascii networks like The Well (where amazon, ebay and sun computers were conceived) to massive online networks like facebook making it possible for you to easily contact anyone you or someone that someone you know knows easily doable in a short space of time. I propose that maybe we can transcend even that with the use of nanotechnology and biotechnology by implanting transmitters and recievers in our brains and bodies that can communicate with each other conciously and unconciously.

Below is a video of technology that allows you to control machines and computers using your mind.

Braingate

I think fantasizing about the possibilities is great excersize in terms of developing stories and creative ideas.

How about the idea that by using hand gestures similar to that which Project Natal, the new XBox tech uses to make you able to control games in this way?

Project Natal

What if nano technology inside your bodies recognised this, so that you could lift your hand to your face making the shape of a phone and the bots rushed to your fingers tips turning your little finger and thumb into a transmitter and receiver?

Or more simply machines that helped you recover from cuts grazes or even broken bones more quickly by enhancing your bodies abilities to deal with this?

Or small nanomachines that cleaned your arteries if they got blocked?

Nanobots Compete in Microscopic Soccer Game

Notes:

Nanobots playing football and racing, using skills that would be needed to conduct microsurgery and other such quality stuff.

Nanotechnology Takes Off - KQED QUEST

Notes:

A nanometre if is a billionth of a metre.

At a nano-scale, material behave differently. Sillicone glows different colours depending on the size of the piece of sillicon you are looking at.

Taking inspiration from natural motors in bacteria and cells.
E.g. The tiny motors a sperm uses to propell itself.

Future:

Tiny devices to clean arteries and filter water.

Past:

A heating and cooling process is used to stain glass windows by altering the size of tiny crystals in the glass.

Current:

Solar energy.
Instead of using sillicone and crystal, scientists are trying to create cheap, durable polymers that conduct heat better than sillicone and crystal

Structure

The Past, Present and Future of Global Communication in terms of how technology has affected it and how it could possibly lead to a positive global consciousness that will save the human race from the destroying the environment in which it lives.

Nanotechnology, the possibilities and the future if nanotechnology becomes effective and useable.
