Problem:
Communications technology is exploding and the resultant impact on business can be quite significant. In more and more cases, face-to-face communication has been replaced by technology applications, some quite simple and some that have been around for many years.
Your assignment is to identify as many business communications technology applications as possible. For each situation you identify, briefly describe the following:
1. The business communications situation (including the business function being accomplished)
2. The way communication occurred in the pre-technology setting
3. The technology now being used
4. Advantages and disadvantages to the technology-aided communication approach
Technology application examples can range from situations as varied as using the telephone or walkie-talkie to talk to someone vs. talking in person to tweeting to advertise product enhancements.
