How far we have come in terms of messaging We have a comet such a long way
technologically. The evidence is all around us and all those who wish to dispute
this fact are blind to all the things that are happening around them. If you
take the sending of messages for example, in the days gone by the messages were
sent through the post or through a messenger. The effect that this had was that
there were so many places that things could go wrong.
For one, the distortion of the message and its intended meaning was a huge risk
that had to be taken not forgetting that the message could be forgotten or lost
if the messenger did not reach his destination. Now all this is behind us as all
we have to do is sit behind a desk, tap into a keyboard and hit send. In an
instant the message is gone and received. Backing up a little, we find that
right before the internet took over and cell phones were everywhere, faxes were
the chosen mode of instant message transmission. If you look at it, the message
had to be typed on a paper, scanned by the machine and then sent as the fax. Now
all this is changed because with the advent of the computer and the internet,
the use of a fax server client allows
us to send faxes through our computers the same way that we would an email. The
only difference is that the fax will not go to an email address but rather to a
dedicated fax box. What happens is that when the fax is sent from the fax center, it is converted into an
electronic format. This is what is sent over and when it is received, it is
converted again into the format of a fax. From here, the end user decides what
to do with the fax. If they decide to store it, then that fax remains with the
user until it is deleted. It has also become very possible to send mail to fax through the computer. There
are some email accounts that let you do this and they sent the emails and the
message through a serve r and when it is received it is converted into the
format of a fax. This is actually a good way to send the message because first
of all the recipient does not need an email address and it can be used to send
the fax to multiple users.
