Sending text is one of the most basic functions of the internet, so it makes sense that communication has been at the heart of the internet since the start. While we’ve been sending messages since the dawn of the internet the ways in which we communicate have changed and adapted over the years. From anonymous chat rooms, to MSN, BBN to WhatsApp the internet has shaped and changed how we talk to each other.
