The Digital Revolution is a shift from analog mechanical and electronic technology to digital technology. These changes have been happening since the 1980s and continue to this day and make great changes around the world. The Digital Revolution has in its turn changed the perspective of a person in living a modern and sophisticated life.
""Development of Computer Technology""
One of the biggest digital revolutions is the development of computer technology. Computers are devices with electronic systems designed to manipulate data quickly and accurately, receive and store data inputs automatically, process data, and generate output according to program instructions and stored in the system memory. Data processing using a computer called Electronic Data Processing (EDP) or Electronic Data Processing (PDE).
The discovery of computers occurred in 5000 years ago in Babylon (Iraq). Computers at that time still in the form of ordinary hityung tools without electricity, then in the era of the 1940s used electric computer. Computer technology continued to grow until the decade of the 1980s and to this day.
""Teknologi Telepon Seluler""
Who does not know a cell phone. Communication tool was discovered by Martin Cooper. At first it was a simple communication device, but in the next production cell phones began to be equipped with headsets. Mobile phones continue to improve on increasingly sophisticated technology, increasingly light weight that is easy to carry, increasingly durable batteries, increasingly attractive designs, and so on.

Everyone can play it and can connect directly with other users around the world. Online game is very interesting because it gives some kind of reward, even some of them also give gift of money that can be thawed
""Technology Conversion""
Technology Conversion occurs among others; development of Compact Disc to Mp3, VHS tape recorder to DVD, public phone to mobile phone, Mail to email, Analog broadcasting to digital broadcasting, and analog photography to digital photography.
