Why do we need a television aerial?
2008-11-14 17:35:01
The signal sent out by a radio or television transmitter is made up of electromagnetic waves which travel at a speed of 300,000 km (186,411 miles) a second. The length of these waves is very important for transmission; very long waves bend with the curve of the earth. This is why it is possible to receive pictures from transmitters in Northern Africa.But the shorter the waves, the straighter the l


How were letters sent in the past?
2008-11-14 15:15:00
Letters have existed since man learnt how to write. Up until 1880, they were carried by travellers over land or by sea.

At that time, the importance of communication was recognized. The message was protected.During the Roman period, the development of a netw


Who discoverd printing?
2008-11-14 14:09:01

What were the first means of communication?
2008-11-14 13:15:00
The very first means of communication was, and is, language. Thanks to language, one person can transmit his feelings and ideas to another. Without words, no organized life is possible on a large scale. But, along with communal life, there arose a need for communication which could travel further than the human voice and, at the same time, reach a group of people in as short a time as possible.Thi


The Hair Club For Lizards
2008-11-14 00:24:54
When we think of hair, we don't normally think of dinosaur claws. However, a new study has discovered genes associated with hair production in living green anole lizards and chickens.

Headphones Can Interfere with Pacemakers: Study
2008-11-11 03:00:02
It should be common sense that electronic devices can cause interference with other electronic devices (remember the old pacemaker / microwave problem?). I wrote earlier about RFID tags interfering with medical devices, a study released on Sunday shows that headphones might throw off pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) when placed within an inch of the medical devices.
