It used to be that when someone wanted to contact you, they called or just dropped by.
When the Internet entered into the mainstream, e-mail was added as a way to quickly reach out to people.
And then online services and social media started to be embraced, which now means there are even more ways to touch base, including:
- Twitter
- Facebook
- LinkedIn
- Skype
- SMS
- GTalk
All of which means you need to log into all of these services to see if anyone is trying to reach you, or use some kind of ultra-messaging tool.
In some ways, it all makes you long for the days of yore when “contact me” meant less choices.
