Stick To One


"I had this guy leave me a voicemail at work, so I called him at home, and then he emailed me to my BlackBerry, and so I texted to his cell, and now you just have to go around checking all these different portals just to get rejected by seven different technologies."

- Mary, He's Just Not That Into You


Getting in touch with people has become a thousand times easier because of the advancements in communications technology. However, staying connected has also gotten way too confounding and complicated at the same time.

Somehow, because of the myriad of choices available to us, we have lost the ability to stick to just one mode of connection - presumably that which is best suited to our own particular needs.

Undeniably, this inability to choose has resulted to the unnecessary difficulty that we experience in keeping track of our correspondences and ultimately, in maintaining our personal relationships.

Sometimes, TOO MANY is just TOO MUCH.

usually people just stick to one medium. so it depends who you really want to contact what medium you will use. or see it the other way around. if you use only one medium, let those people access you in only that medium. in demand diba ;)
