With the current world situation, a large demand for video chats and voice calls via the Internet has popped up. Many are now working and studying from home for the first time. However, meet-ups via telecommunication are not a new idea, this idea and the corresponding technology has been flying around from the 1870s with services of the “party line” or telephone conference calls. A party line is a local loop telephone circuit that is shared by multiple telephone service subscribers. Party line systems were widely used to provide telephone service, starting with the first commercial switchboards in 1878.
