Global communication is the act of exchanging information to all parts of the world. We're always coming up with new ideas to make the process of sharing information across the world easier. Global communication makes advances each year to promote globalization. Global communication has changed in the past ten years and we can see this through business, international responses, and social netwroking.
Advertising and online shopping is a benefit of global communication. In the past ten years businesses have been taking advantage of the internet by using advertisements to reach out and sell their products to different countries. Online shopping also gave business’s the ability do business with other countries. “By 2003 a person in Australia could purchase a product online as easily as a person down the street” (Alexis Writing).  Online shopping gives everyone a chance to enjoy the products from other countries. The outcome of this is money flowing in and out of countries which promotes globalization.  
Technology has made forecasting weather and other natural disasters a lot easier, but what’s the point of forecasting if you can’t tell anyone about it? In the past ten years international responses have been saving lives from weather related injuries. For example, say a tsunami is heading straight for the United States because of a massive earth quake that just happened off the coast of South America. With today’s technology South America could contact the United States with a warning. There are bases all over the globe that keep an eye on weather patterns and are ready to send out alerts. The NCEP delivers predictions to the Nation and the global community. In 2005 the NCEP, located in Miami Florida, sent out a warning to Cuba stating that “Hurricane Dennis left a trail of destruction from the Caribbean Sea to the northern coast of the Gulf of Mexico and is heading straight for south eastern Cuba” (Jack Beven). Luckily for today’s technology the United States was able to reach out to Cuba and warn them about the hurricane. Keeping each other safe from harm is another movement towards globalization.
                Most Individuals tody live in a society that depends on communication to keep up with family, friends, entertainment, health care, education, traveling, and anything else that involves our daily lives. With all the advances in technology we can gather this information faster and easier.  Facebook was created within the past ten years and has grown into the biggest social network in the world. “Facebook allows users to continuously stay in touch with friends, relatives and other acquaintances wherever they are in the world, as long as there is access to the Internet”(Chris Hughes). Once you become friends with someone on Facebook, you can learn so much about them just by reading their page. For example someone from Africa could learn about someone from China just by becoming their friend on Facebook. Social networking promotes globalization because it gives people the opportunity to become more open to diversity and different cultures.
Most individuals today rely on global communication in their everyday lives. Because of this, we are always coming up with new ideas to make the process of sharing information across the world easier. We can see in the past ten years, some of the advances in global communication and how it has promoted globalization through business, international responses, and social networking.
