The Benefits of Modern Technology
Modern technology has brought about enormous improvements in communications and yet many people are still very worried A22 about using the latest computer technology. I am often surprised to meet people who still don't know what the 'e' in e-mail stands for and they are too A23 embarrassed to ask. They assume you have to be skilled A24 in computers to send a message via e-mail but in fact it is the simplest thing in the world.
It is also cheaper to send an e-mail message than to send an ordinary letter or a 'snail' message which also takes much longer. An e-mail message is only A25 slightly more expensive than a local telephone call to send; on top of the call itself you also have to pay a fee to your 'server'. If you send a letter by A26 first-class mail it will take a couple of days to get there whereas an e-mail will not take longer than a few seconds.
Once you become A27 accustomed to using the system you will be amazed at how much more A28 efficient it is than other means of communication. Of course, before you have access to e-mail, you will need a fairly powerful computer, which can be quite expensive.
