Hmm I feel bad about this update, because I again, have never held a Blackberry. So there isn’t much I can say again. Plus I’m not feeling so good, really. And I’ve decided to make this blog a technology blog, I mean I already started anyways, so yeah :)
If you’re wondering about my mood, well…blah. As you probably know, when you lack sleep it’s hard to think. I’d stare at the screen (or whatever) in the middle of what I’m doing and just…be lost. Bleh.
1999: Blackberry. Research in Motion’s Blackberry proved so popular that heavy users complained of finger injuries from endless hours of thumb typing. Blackberries made it easier for mobile professionals to communicate on-the-go with quick e-mails, and they’ve become ubiquitous in government, technology and financial circles. And so addictive that they have been nicknamed “crackberries.”
As I mentioned, I’ve never had a Blackberry, but I always hear about it. I do imagine that they were very useful and practical during their time, and with the format it definitely looked like something professionals would get into. It looks like a pager, doesn’t it? But yeah, a device like this is useful for setting up reminders.
Well, for 1999 thus was probably a must for professionals, but now you’ve got all that in your phone anyway. But even so, without this Blackberry, phone companies wouldn’t have gotten the idea to do that (or they would have gotten the idea much later). So indeed, this deserves to be in that list.
