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’.

From Our Clients
Andrew helped us to see the potential of video in bringing our new website to life.
He held our hand through the process, making it as undaunting as possible.
He delivered a great selection of videos (from a one-day shoot), that really tell the Foodbank story and will be a great addition to our communications.
We are very pleased with the end result. It was good to have you pushing us along for material in order that we met the agreed completion deadline - you certainly are good project managers!
The services provided included the registration of our domain name, establishment of our email accounts, and development & hosting of our website, were all executed rapidly and effectively. We also appreciate the service of upgrading our list of 150 shelf company names (in Chinese characters and English) every 2 weeks.
We valued the high level of creative design provided by Digital Tsunami, both for the website and the corporate identity.
Your team has been great to work with. Tamara is very quick to catch on to things and Amir's code and CSS has impressed David due to its' simplicity and elegance.
Foodbank has experienced unprecedented growth .. there is no doubt that the new Foodbank website, designed, built and maintained pro bono by Digital Tsunami, has been the principle tool in lifting Foodbank's profile. It is because our website is so engaging, that we have captured these donations. Foodbank just wouldn't be where we are today without Digital Tsunami.
