Things Technology Killed

Do you remember the suspense that was felt when you were waiting to find out the rest of the news story at 11 pm? Of course you do not. It has been so long when you could not know all the news whenever you felt like looking it up. Technology gave a whole new definition to news junky. Most of the time these days, you can keep up with the news as it is happening. What about the satisfaction felt when you slammed the phone down in anger. You cannot slam your phone down to hand up on that person unless you want to feel some regret about that very expensive piece of technology. You also cannot lie about trying to call someone and missing them or hearing a busy signal. Thanks to cell phone services, call display, call waiting, and voicemail, no one has missed a call in about 15 years. If you call someone, both your phone and their phone has disgusting, ugly evidence of the fact, and will hold onto it indefinitely if you want it to.

  3. Some internet phone services have text messaging services. It has not really caught on but in some contexts it is not too casual.

  4. There are times that we can be too connected with all those phone services and mobile application. Try taking a walk in the park and smelling the fresh air.
