Continuing with my series of lesser knowns.
It's so amazing that we can communicate with anybody in
this world at any point of time with just click of a button
of our cell phones.
How has this been possible?
Obviously, there has been contributions from numerous people
from all round the globe. But there has to be some technology
which revolutionised the way we communicate, which automatised
the most important part of the communication.
Here, I would like to mention Almon Brown Strowger.
So, who was he? An engineer or a scientist. To anyone's
surprise he was an undertaker and he was responsible for
automatising a very important part called switching in
telecommunications.
Read more about him on the Wiki page and this another page.
