|An important breakthrough came when the binary system was invented.  In the binary system information can in a series of "0"s and "1"s thus allowing information to be accessed through only a combination of "1"s and "0"s.  This allowed information to be communicated in discrete bits which could be combined and recombined. Such a computer which uses "0"s and "1"s to perform computations a digital computer. What makes our society now different from ever before is the presence of digital technologies. Combined with the development of new methods of designing circuits like transistors and micro chips, it became possible to design computers which performed computations using digital methods.  This improved the reliability and ease of computations significantly over the analog machines.  The digital electronics changed operations in many applications including manufacturing, however the impact on ICT has been almost revolutionary.  This has led to the growth of computers as we know it - from large clunky computers to the computer on your desktop to the laptop and now the smart phone.  See the slideshow here for a glimpse of how the digital technology revolutionized history of computing.
