Digital communication is the transfer of data from one device to another. it is used worldwide and one of the most common used types of communication to date. for excample optical fibres or radio transmitters.

Methods: methods for example are Facebook, Bebo and Myspace which are all social networks used by people as a source of communication. For excample Facebook is used in a way to communicate with your friends other the internet on a personalized page which you can edit.

Devices: devices are how you receive the digital data. for example a iphone, radio and a mobile.
for excample a radio lets you receive audio to listen to and a mobile lets you receive digital text through digital technology.


Protocols: a set of rules for one device to connect with another for excample bluetooth uses radio transmitters to transfer data. Bluetooth is a low band width protocol which isn't good for transmitting large pieces of data.


I was assigned to research two protocols which was Bluetooth and Skype.

Bluetooth - Uses radio transmitters to transfer information from one device to another

Skype - Allow you to make web chat were you can see people whilst taking to them.
