In writing, once again

// November 23rd, 2009 // Blogging

When was it? About 20 years ago or so… The post offices where happy places. People communicated through letters. Often. There where adds in teenage magazines looking for pen-buddies. That was the trend. People always loved socialising, exchanging interests and hobbies, opinions and information. There where pop and rock stars’ fan clubs. Everything in mailing form. People used to write.

Then came the mobile phone revolution. Text messaging replaced the good ol’ plain letter. But it was not the same. SMS, only few words available, can’t write as much as you want unless you send multiple messages… More and more the communications turned towards live calls.

But nowadays the writing words have regained their once lost glory. Blogging, social networks, personal websites and the lot… Writing forms of communication once again. Different but still the same. Along with writing came attention to detail again, politeness, social skills. Good times…
