Why are we Called Smoke Signals?
November 30, 2021
You’ve heard of the name, you have read our articles, but you might be wondering – Why are we called Smoke Signals? How does a newspaper publishing website lead to a name like that? Well, I’m here to give you the answer!
According to warpaths2peacepipes.com,”Smoke Signals were used by many cultures including the Native American Indians as a means to quickly communicate visual messages over long distances. The simple messages sent via these signals were conveyed by means of columns or intermittent puffs or clouds of smoke”.
I understand why we would be called Smoke Signals now because the newspaper website is basically virtual, and we kind of send long distance messages into the website. Whoever came up with this name many years ago, kudos to you, my friend!
