McLuhan was the one who created the tetrad of media. As we can see, there are 4 human action that make up the tetrad made by McLuhan, which is enhances, reverses, retrieves, and obsolesces. There are many type of medium but I'll choose mobile phone as my subject. Mobile phone have been widely use these days, and it's convenient to bring them anywhere as it is small and mobile. This will enhances the speed of people get connect to each other by calling or just sending a short message(SMS). So, Primitive or old ways of communicating like using carrier pigeon, heliographs, smoke signals or telegraph will no longer be used. In the future, the probability of people will not see each other face to face will be higher due to the advance in the technology world.
