Bell's Box Telephone of 1877

The first commercial telephone used by Alexander Graham Bell was based on his patent of January 1877. The telephone consisted of a single transmitter/receiver placed within a retangular wooden box. somebody could speak into the opening in the box and then listen through the same opening. This telephone had essentially the same design as the patent drawing except for the shape. The the patent drawing had a round shape rather than squared.

Two or more of these box phones were connected in series on a line with a ground return. The first telephone line was installed in April 1877 between Charles William's electrical shop on Court Street, Boston and his home about three miles away. A month later the first rented installations were made making this line the first commercial phone service. A mark in history that would pave the way first for families to have a phone in every home, then individuals to have smaller portable phones, a phone answering machine for businesses and much more yet to come.

The box phone had nothing to warn you of incoming calls. June of 1877, Thomas Watson devised a "thumper" that would strike the diaphram of the box phone to make a tapping sound on the receiving telephone as a signal device.




the earliest advertisment i was able to come over in my research was this one ---->
 

as you can see all it is is words in a boring black text and it is extremely long. i wonder how many people actually took the time to read this out of their day after all back in the 1800s weren't they still doing insane amount of chores and stuff to get by?

 As of today I am going to start following the media lifespan of Bell. In my opinion the man whom invented the phone made it that much easier for our stalkers to find us. Last time I checked no one would be able to find you through the mailing system. Nowadays many phones have tracking systems in them and our safety is closely walking on the line of safe and privacy invasion. So much so that the government has created technology that allows them to tap into our phone systems and listen to our everyday world around us. Let's take a jump into the Bell advertisments :)

no wonder our perception of beauty is so distorted

what have we come to? socially? emotionally? morally?

maybe we murder ourselves inside to have this odd image of beauty on the outside. whoever said looks cant kill they were wrong in a sense because emotionally this is not our look. we cant all be the same. we cant all be model type. our inner selves are being squashed and tormented by the media saying whats on the inside isn't good enough. its good that dove has the self esteem workshop and im a huge supporter to there campaigne but isnt it odd that yes they think everyones beautiful on the inside and out in their own way; but that they sell the very beauty products the media tells us we need to be beautiful?

its true

..if murder wasn't a crime , I'd have a lot of funeral dresses

what is mass murder?

what is mass murder? well wikipedia knows it!!

Mass murder (in military contexts, sometimes interchangeable with "mass destruction" or "genocide") is the act of murdering a large number of people, typically at the same time or over a relatively short period of time.^[1] According to the FBI, mass murder is defined as four or more murders occurring during a particular event with no cooling-off period between the murders. A mass murder typically occurs in a single location in which a number of victims are killed by an individual or more.^[2][3] With exceptions, many acts of mass murder end with the death of the perpetrator(s), whether by direct suicide or being killed by law enforcement.
