INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY AND ITS IMPACT ON THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF TOURISM

Abstract

The Internet is revolutionizing the world of computing and communications like nothing before. The invention of the telegraph, the telephone, the radio, and the computer laid the foundations for this unprecedented integration of possibilities. We see the retrospect and perspective of the development of new communication technologies from a social and technological aspect in the context of the development of new information and communication technologies at all levels of global, regional, national and local media communication.
The Internet is simultaneously a worldwide broadcasting facility, a mechanism for disseminating information, and a medium for collaboration and interaction between individuals and their computers regardless of geographic location. Tourism can be seen as an economic activity that produces a range of positive and negative impacts. Today, when tourism is one of the world's most propulsive industries, many countries see their great chance for economic progress precisely in its development. There is no doubt that, if the planning, development and management of tourism is put on a sound basis, it can be a powerful development stimulus for any country. Such an innovation factually mostly reflects on all branches of the market, not leaving out tourism as well as its economic development.
