Mobile calling in the future
We all know the long line of people at the introduction of the new iPhone. These are the people who seem crazy at first, and perhaps still do at second glance. But these are also the people who are on the eve of major changes in the media landscape. The late majority thinks very differently about this at the introduction, especially when it comes to mobile calling in the future.
In 1875 there was a young innocent man who started his own private tutoring practice. His name was Aleck. In his class was a young girl he was madly in love with. She came from a good background and Aleck was in comparison just an 'ordinary teacher'. Still he was madly in love with her. There was only one problem. The girl, named Mabel, was deaf. Aleck was a private tutor for the deaf. Aleck's mother was also deaf and this had prompted Aleck to become a private tutor for the deaf.
Mabel's parents would rather see Aleck leave than come. Aleck was asked several times not to come near her anymore. Aleck would get her love and he almost knew how. In addition to his profession as a private teacher, Aleck was also an inventor: he was about to make one of the world's greatest inventions. His full name was Aleck Graham Bell , the australia phone data man who would show the world the telephone (as can be read in the book Electric Universe by David Bodanis).

Who came first?
Innovation always follows invention. Invention and innovation are sometimes marketed by the same person, but sometimes separately. There is a big difference between an inventor and an innovator:
“In its purest sense, 'invention' can be defined as the creation of a product or introduction of a process for the first time. 'Innovation', on the other hand, occurs if someone improves on or makes a significant contribution to an existing product, process or service.”
A thread between two pieces of paper
The telephone was invented by Aleck Graham Bell. He did this by stretching a wire between two pieces of paper. By talking to the first piece of paper, it starts to vibrate. This vibration is transferred to the paper on the other side, which creates a similar vibration and therefore a similar sound. Aleck based this invention on the technology of the telegraph, which is all about deciphering codes.
