Kids say e-mail is, like, soooo dead

July 18th, 2007

Back home, somewhat disappointed, from the ICWE Conference in Como, I went through my daily RSS reading routine, that I had skipped this morning because I had to leave early.

Well, apparently, the email is SOOOOO dead, I mean, like, you know….OLD, soooo dead.

Turns out that a number of teens, interviewed, had funny ideas about the role and…you know…”coolness” of the communication media called “email”. Do kids still say “cool”?

I feel kind of old as well when I read stuff like this, as I never got really caught up in the whole social networking thing…I find it stupid, but then again, I’m probably just old fashioned…I keep telling myself that the white hair on my head is the result of stress but…duuuude, I’m sooooo, like, old!!!

Do you want to feel old as well? Follow the link! And if you feel old, leave a comment. Or you can…you know…email me.

    Ah… this burned youth with no valours and no respect for seniors!

    ..speaking seriously, it is true that nowdays the e-mail is mainly used for business issues or sporadic conversations (generally with friends or relatives that live far from you)…

    and for las but not least e-mail is also used to remember to the human kind what a wonderful product is Viagra and how poor would be our lifes without it!

    Stupid kids!!!

    I hate Myspace and everything like it…

    It’s a sort of second life (or Second Life if you want)

    It encourages people to live a parallel life on the net…

    I’m the only one that loved playing football and have “real” friends when was a young boy???

    Shut up ilNano!!!!!!

    Ciao Ale :D

  5. You can claim you are old, email-wise, only if you had an ICBM address.

    As for the CNET story, it triggers my PR-o-meter. Email is not old, it’s just mainstream.
