Which technological innovation has provided near-instantaneous access to information and communication?

A transatlantic telegraph cable is an undersea cable running under the Atlantic Ocean implemented for telegraph communications. The first communications took place on August 16, 1858, reducing the communication time between North America and Europe from ten days (the time it took to deliver a message by ship) to a matter of minutes. Transatlantic telegraph cables have been replaced by transatlantic telecommunications cables.
