How World War I Revolutionized Communications

Often called the "first modern war," World War I introduced a great many technological developments as the world carried itself further into the industrial age. Each country involved in the conflict sought to out-do one another in manufacturing ships, equipment and weapons.

However, one area of development that often goes unlooked is that of communications technology. A recent LiveScience article suggests that the rapid development in electric and radio-based communications "revolutionized the art of war" just as much as airplanes, tanks and chemical weapons.
