The Tech Revolution

Technology has completely changed the way that we organize ourselves – as I’m sure you are already aware. The PDA has done away with the date book, which in a way is a shame because I always looked forward to starting a new date book at the beginning of the year. It was a good reason to buy stationary (who doesn’t love new stationary), and glance back at everything that happened in the last 52 weeks. Also you had to manually transfer the contact information of individuals from one date book to another. So every year you could narrow down the list of people you actually talk to. Now with PDA’s – the contact list is endless, and the contact information of nearly everyone you meet goes into the device. The PDA/cell phone combination is even sadder for the Casanova’s of the world. No longer do these fellow’s have a little black book – because phone numbers go directly into the PDA. I guess the have a little black SIM card, which is hardly the same thing.
