The bolt of lightning , seen through the open window, became an attribute closely identified with Franklin. At Franklin's death French philosopher/scientist Jacques Turgot wrote: "He seized the lightning from the sky and the scepter from the hand of tyrants."…
It’s June 23rd, 1876 I have arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the Centennial Exposition. I am thrilled to see what new inventions will be offered today. As I walked into the Machinery Hall one specific thing caught my eye. They call it the Telephone, invented by Alexander Graham Bell. It’s a magical machine like the Telegraph, but Telephone that lets you talk to people across the country, but with your voices. You can have a full speaking, conversation with someone miles away. The problem with the Telegraph is, not everyone knows how to use it. Learning all the codes may take some time, but with the Telephone you can speak anything you want English, Spanish, German anything.…

Alexander Graham Bell was born on March 3, 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Working through numerous experiments in sound and advancing his father’s work on Visible Speech for deaf people Bell acquired his education.To continue his study about the human voice he opened a workshop. He also did important work in communication for the deaf. Throughout his life he held more than 18 patents. Bell was one of the primary inventors of the telephone. Through many years of experimentation with sound waves he created the telephone. Bell got the idea from the phonautograph version that he created. The phonautograph worked by drawing sound waves so this made him think that it was possible to create electrical currents that correlated with sound waves. Bell…
When the telephone was invented it wasn’t very popular. In fact people didn’t believe that it actually worked. Bell was accused of everything from being an imposter to practicing witchcraft. Bell worked hard by putting on demonstrations to display his invention. He would travel to different locations and play music over the telephone. No one at the time could fathom what the telephone could be used for besides entertainment. At this time, no practical use could be seen and investors stayed away from the telephone. “Serious businessmen did not want to invest in a “useless toy” (Novitskaya, 2004).…

When the telephone did not exist, what device did people use for communications? The telegraph was the answer, made by Samuel F. B. Morse. An invention that could transmit an electric pulse across a cable to send messages. This invention was looked poorly upon at the beginning of its time. But one man had the guts to invest in Morse’s telegraph, and he soon became one of the reasons the telegraph was created. The telegraph caused the telephone to be invented. Morse had wanted to be able to “talk across continents.” The telegraph was not a small device such as a cellular phone. It was a device that was and emplacement, that was installed into its location, it was bulky and took up a lot of space. Morse slowly improved his model to be able to put it in ships, so that it did not require a direct transit cable to connect to the receiving end. Some thought Morse was crazy and wasting his money, yet he devoted his savings to create something that started the possible idea that we could talk to someone who was halfway around the world. The telegraph was a complex designed that did not even seem to be possible at the time of the industrial revolution. Unlike some inventors that required a break in the middle of the making of their invention, he stayed working on it because he was devoted to creating the transmitting device. Slowly Morse developed the thought of the telegraph and he began to manufacture what today is known as the telegraph and morse code.…

If it weren't for the telegraph the telephone wouldn't be a intervention. The people who had the idea of the telephone came from the telegraph.

The effects can be described by the outcome and todays uses of the telephone.…
