Important Comm. Tech. To Study

An important communication technology to study would be streaming media on the internet. Everyone can access any kind of media that they would like, ranging from up to date news stories to stupid videos on YouTube, and they can do so from just about any electronic device imaginable. This is an important aspect of communication technology because it can keep someone informed on his or her hobbies or interests, like listening to a podcast concerning what's happening in a specific industry, it can help two people to communicate on different sides of the world via a web cam, or a person could simply catch up one the breaking news headlines of the day from his or her favorite news outlet. Since there is so much one can do with streaming media on the internet, a person barely even needs a television in his or her home considering the ability to watch news broadcasts as well as just about any television show online. All of this combined makes streaming media a very significant aspect of information and communication technology.
