Once upon a time

Your life without a computer: what does it look like?

So, yes, back in the day, we just did not have connecting devices. We used to type. On a typewriter!

We didn’t have email, so we took our typed letters to the post office; we put them in an envelope, affixed a stamp, and mailed them. Mail not e-mail. No instant messages or texts either.

Social media? Ha. To be social, we’d have parties with our friends.

Invitations to those were either via mail or we’d call. There was a time when there wasn’t v.m. even on those clunky land lines.

Oh, and you had to stand still while on the phone because (get this!) It wasn’t portable. There was a wire connecting it to the wall.
