Can you believe the telephone was invented only 135 years ago? I can barely imagine now living without a cell phone, let alone a basic unit that was operated by a central switchboard!
How many of you can remember having "party lines"! That was a blast when I was a kid I can tell you.
We have come a long way from a twang of a clock spring, which was the first cry of the newborn telephone. Now we can download our own ringtones. The list of unbelievables goes on and on.
Check out this website to learn the whole history of the telephone.
