Telegrafens betydelse ska dock inte underskattas (ursäkta OT till TS). Veckans köpråd till er blir; The Victorian Internet: The Remarkable Story of the Telegraph and the Nineteenth Century's On-Line Pioneers . 😉
"The central idea of the book posits that of these two technologies, it was the telegraph that was the more significant, since the ability to communicate globally at all in real-time was a qualitative shift, while the change brought on by the modern Internet was merely a quantitative shift according to Standage, though, by the same token, global communication was just a quantitative shift from long-distance communication."
