I love corresponding ever since I was a little girl in pinafore uniform. Those days, my close buddies and I could "advertise" our names and home addresses in the newspaper columns in search of pen friends (or boyfriends, ha!). I used to receive dozens of letters and I would screen through them one by one checking for their pix and asl..(age-sex-location, LOL). Then I would reply them one by one and waited for their replies..
I remember I had pen pals from overseas, as far as UK, the States and Aussie.. and I would wait patiently for the snail letter to arrive, stretching my neck each time the postman passed by.. At that time, I was wishing and hoping in vain that the letters from my favorite pals would arrive instantly.
20 years later, my dream comes true.. the instant messaging, emails, VOIP services, at a click of the mouse, my message is sent across in a spilt of second.. Who could predict those days that a letter which normally takes weeks to arrive can now arrive in a second!! Now, this is what we call revolution of technologies!!
Speaking of technologies.. whaddya think are these????
Pens with hidden camera??
If I tell you that these are Personal Computer, would you believe it? No? Take a closer look..
Now I call that revolution of miniature computers! The advance of bluetooth technology..
Hmm.. I would love to replace my 2 kg Toshiba lap top for this futuristic "lap top"!
