Its interesting how fast technologies rise to the top only to be squashed by the next best thing. Here are twelve examples...

Ah, the days of pager-code-texting and the Walkman.
Good find Jason. And the Sony Minidisc ad as an uber-90s-hot girl. :D
Kinda funny that the beeper talk has morphed into texting. I consider myself as being pretty hip to the current lingo but this texting stuff is insane!
How about the car phone? Or any console sport games that are more than 2 - 3 years old?
The phrase "information superhighway" is pretty dead.
Ugh, information superhighway... dead yet still unspeakably awful.
Hmm, what is the hottest game right now? Nitendo WII. I cannot believe this.
The Wii rocks!
And Jason - agree! Texting is the worst abomination and abortion of the English language *ever*. Drives me nuts to see it, and I refuse to 'txt-spk' when I text.
I'm still in the dark ages with a cell phone that doesn't have surround sound ring tones, mp3 player, 10MP camera, full qwerty keyboard, GPS turn by turn navigation, etc. Hell I can't even send a text!
Heh, so I guess the next "dead" technology is the cell phone! They've been replaced with smart phones!
Oh and ditto the Wii. I absolutely love it! There is nothing better than getting some game time and some exercize in at the same time.
doodz, txt spk totuly rox! am i rite? omg lol
Watch out Bewler, Doc K really hates that stuff. He might throw mad face smilies at you! :)
