What happened to the email Forwards ?

A quite day at work and having completed all the scheduled tasks on the table, landed in the world of email forwards that I had saved. Upright surprised with the number of mail forwards that I had received during 2004-2006. The following years 2007-2010 saw a gradual decrease and today the 14th day of October 2013, My mailbox has zero mail forwards.

Relating this to the recent end of telegram and the last decade where I haven't received a single inland letter or a post card (nor have I sent any). Communication infact is a constant shift, what was the only means yesterday will be overtaken by a superior means today and tomorrow shall witness another and the motion just doesn't stop.

The journey I have witnessed thus far is the shift from post cards to emails to orkut to messengers to twitter to facebook to whatsapp. For all those who have preserved the post cards, it's a history worth reliving and for the present generation who start with the world wide web, it would still be a history when they look back at communication after another decade or so.

Every walk and field of Life is screaming out one big word "CHANGE" and it is unwise to hold onto things forever. The apprehension and the fear of Change dies slowly with time. Wise make a fortune by embracing Change and fools left behind to regret what had to have been done.

Another learning that brings a smile with every click of the mouse.
