I C T - INFORMATION COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY.

Apart from explaining an acronym, there is not a universally accepted definition of Information Communication Technology (ICT). Because the concepts, methods, and applications involved in ICT are constantly evolving on an almost daily basis. It’s difficult to keep up with the changes. They happen so fast.
A good way to think about ICT is to consider all the uses of digital technology that already exist to help individuals, businesses, and organisations use information. ICT covers any product that will store, retrieve, manipulate, translate, transmit or receive information electronically in a digital firm. For example, personal computers, digital television, email, etc. So ICT is concerned with the storage, retrieval, manipulation, transmission or receipt of digital data. Importantly, it is also concerned with the way these different uses can work with each other.
