All around us are technologies that seem to be past their prime, but are still widely used today. Here is a list of 7 technologies that are relevant and old school simultaneously.
- Email. “Shoot me an email” is business language, no longer hip.
- DVD/BluRay. We still rent and buy them, but streaming is becoming king.
- Skype. I recently mentioned it and someone asked me if it was 2005.
- Watches. More of a fashion accessory than a needed piece any more thanks to cell phones.
- Bluetooth earpiece. I am all for hands free driving, but please, leave it in the car.
- CDs. Both for music and for computers. Yup. You know who you are.
- Cable TV/Satellite. Not because of technology itself, but that fact that we can pay for only the channels we want.
Feel free to add to the list. There is nothing like technology to make us retro so quickly:)
So what do you say if not Skype and you don’t have an iPhone?
