In the beginning impressive things were written on stone, clay, bones, silk or bamboo. Then came papyrus, parchment and animal skins. Finally came paper, on which the writings gleamed. But forty years ago, words began to be stored in invisible cells on electronic circuits. Now they can be seen across the world by all simultaneously. |
