How far have we come……
Let’s face it – communication was hard in those days…………….
“The tools we use to communicate shape the very foundations of culture, society and business: how we innovate, how we solve problems, how we organize and how we act. Continued innovation is key to continued progress.” Ray Ozzie - @[email protected]
My travelling days were many
Communication with the outside was hard.
Never worked and WHO was Listening….
Only for the privilegedminority like the military…
The Challenges were great…………
Floppy discs – when did they ever work when they’d been through an x-ray machine
Books – no kindles or tablets – excess baggage
Food – always a problem in some parts
Now – just food is a bit of a problem
Email – a major breakthough
Major tech companies pioneers alike provided email systems to cross boundaries.
Evolution – email resurgence: IBM Verse, Microsoft Clutter, Google Inbox
Facebook grew and grew – giving birth to many other social media platforms
It became a way for me to stay connected to friends and family even though I was miles away. Sometime but not always in exotic locations.

How many messages / posts / tweets can you handle - you need a social media management tool.
I was spending most of my journeys switching from social network to social network – some well known and some were private
I began to search for ways of managing my increasing social media addiction.
I tried Tweetdeck
