Reading this article was basically a review of what we discussed in class regarding the most significant inventions related to the development of media to date. Gibson believes that electricity, the alphabet, the printing press and cave paintings. It makes sense that we cannot include more recent inventions since we cannot fully understand the effect that they have, but I still think that it is possible to evaluate their impact on society to date.
