Found this stuff on rediff.com ....a user had commented bout the effects of modern technology on our lives....
Scene in an office in the year 1950.
Colleagure A wants to pass a message to Colleague B. He goes across to his desk and tells his message.
Scene in 1970 -A sends a Inter Office Memo to B.
Scene in 1980 - A picks up the intercom and speaks to B.
Scene in 1990 -A faxes the message to B.
Scene in 2000 -A emails the message to B.
Scene in 2008 -
A says to B on intercom - Hey B , what is your fax number?
B - My fax is under repair. Can you mail it.
A - My system is down.B - Can you SMS it.
A - Too long. And I forgot your mobile number.
B - Damn I also forgot what my mobile number is.
A - Ok, go back and check your mobile number and SMS me your number. And in return I will SMS you when my system is right again and send through the message. If not you can SMS me when your fax is repaired so that I can fax it. OK?
B - Hey that is a good idea.
The next day B's fax is repaired. He sends SMS and asks A to fax it.Now A has a different problem. He has forgotten what was the message he wanted to convey !!
Hehehee ...hahaha ... very true indeed!!
