Current Technology

Technology has helped us communicate in the business world a lot. It has also made it a lot faster. Take Google Docs for example. Before the internet and e-mail everyone had to mail a document to someone, which would take a few days. If  the receiver wanted to make any suggestions they would either have to write them on the document or re-write the document. After E-mail came along it was nice because you could attach the document and send it to a lot of people. Each person could adjust it as they wanted and after sending it back the the receiver he or she could make all the needed changes.

Now we have Google Docs. With Google Docs you can send the same document to a lot of people, and each user can watch the others make changes in real time. Google Docs also has a side task bar that allows you to chat with the other users online so that everyone can come to a conclusion on how it should look while the document is being worked on.

Google Docs is just a small slice of the technology pie. Cellphones, texting, and Skype have also made business communication better and easier to do. As technology progresses it will only improve the way we communicate in the business world.
