Alexander Graham Bell

Alexander Graham Bell invented one of the most common instruments in use today, the telephone. The telephone started a new age in communication technology. He also founded the Bell Telephone Company, which later became the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T). It became one of the world's most successful corporate conglomerates.

Few people realized how Bell's invention would revolutionize world communications. Many of Bell's ideas and inventions were before their time, and people laughed at the idea of a telephone in every home. He imagined uses for his telephone, like an office tool, but would he ever have imagined the amazing revolution the telecommunication industry has undergone? Bell's "electrical speech machine" paved the way for the Information Superhighway. Your ability to access information on your computer relies on telecommunications technology. Bell, never realizing, had a glimpse of the basic principle which would one day find its application in the tape recorder, the computer, CD-ROM, and many more things used daily in our life today.
