What was the media progression that led to social media? - mr.right dr.question - 03-24-2014 04:49 PM I also want links for your answer so I can get a better understanding... - KenK - 03-24-2014 04:54 PM I doubt you'll necessarily find "links" because I am uncertain this is clearly a statement of simple fact. When computers were coupled with telephone modems, computers could access dial-up "bulletin boards" where people could have discussions and send and receive email. Pictures were not included, nor were videos or sound files, but this was certainly a start of social media... around 1985.
