Gmail, anyone?

I've got four available so if you want one, send me an email.

Talking about email, I've overheard someone who said, "Email is one of the best things that ever happened since sliced bread. Oh yes, email has indeed made communication convenient and speedy, but do you agree that to a certain degree it has impersonalized our way of communication?

Consider these:

Instead of picking up the phone to call someone, you send an email.
Instead of going to the next door office to greet a co-employee, you send an email.
Your mom's dying to hear your voice on her birthday, she heard, "You've got mail" instead.

Gone is the warmth and the passion that verbal communication brings, because of email.

But email is here to stay, Oh well.
