Charting Communications Evolution
October 1, 2012The increasingly rapid rate of technological innovation is displayed graphically in an infographic entitled the Changing Consumer.
In the century following the first public demonstration of the telegraph in 1844, the single major telecommunications development was the telephone. In the last 30 years of the 20th century, fax, cellphones and text messages emerged and grew rapidly. In the last decade, Geosocial platforms have launched, and together with the dramatic rise of smartphones, are becoming the prime means of social communication.
The number of people using social media has grown from fewer than 4 million in 2005 to over 1.5 billion in 2012.
Earlier this century, the founder of Digital Tsunami coined a phrase for this rapid technological and sociological change: ‘Communications Evolution’.

Thank you for the development of an updated brand image for Wah Yuet in China.
While originally contracted to produce a video highlighting Wah Yuet's manufacturing capabilities, it was apparent very quickly that your understanding of our requirements, combined with your experience, were the perfect fit to create a new logo and style guidelines for the company. While relatively small in scope, you were dedicated to the success of the project and I am pleased to say that you hit the bullseye!
