I am writing this for Intel Fleximoms Techmoms Blogathon
I belong to the time when the internet had just about entered our lives and there was a wide eyed curiosity about it.
In my office, one 'latest' computer was bought for installation of the internet. And, it was given the prime place in the office, much like a temple in a home :). We would use the computer for e-mailing and using the internet. The colleagues who understood the 'complicated' technology first, became much sought after. People would have been forgiven to mistake them for 'Mr & Ms Popular'. The IT department was suddenly the flavour of the days.
The wonder of the e-mails, which could send communication in a jiffy and was much much faster than the fastest mode those days - The Fax machine, was never ending. The internet started replacing the library. And, a new crisis got added to our list - The internet is down!!!!! Horror of horrors, how will we now communicate / work!!!!!??? Life changed for all of us. Work became much faster, timelines & the dreaded deadlines became much shorter and we went down a path of discoveries everyday.
And now, it is all a part of our lives, so well intergrated it has become. I am quite kicked to have been a part of this cusp period. I have more stories to tell after all.......
