Bridging the distance through technology
By Donna J. Jodhan
Up until about a decade ago, it seemed as if our world was o so big. We seemed to be so far away from each other. That is, if we lived in different countries. The good old phone was our main channel of communication followed by cables and telexes and snail mail also known as letter writing. There were faxes too and the Internet was still in its infancy but alas! all of this has changed and continues to evolve!
When I was at university, I used the phone and letters to communicate with my parents and loved ones but the game is so much different today and it was recently brought home to me when I saw how my niece uses technology to communicate with her parents who are thousands of miles away. Enter Skype, MSN chat, other chat programs, chatrooms, emails, texting, and the list continues on. No doubt, this list is only going to grow and technology will only help to decrease the communications gap. What used to be days and sometimes even weeks to receive responses has now magically turned into minutes and even seconds!
Our world has gotten much smaller with the event of technology; through the Internet, through the event of cell phones, and there is more to come. Even those greeting cards can now be sent via the Internet. Bravo for the bridge of technology!
I'm Donna J. Jodhan wishing you a terrific day and weekend.
