Tinternet etiquette

[Northern Lass]

Are you in with the cyber crowd

Do you know your Cookies from your avatars?

Do you understand all that jargon?

I used to use caps to post messages and was informed it was shouting!

I never knew that

I have to say I am lost on what they can do today
how about you?

[a5baggie]

me to NL, as long as i can do my e-mails
and browse around from site to site, buying the odd
thing along the way does it matter??

Darling...do you remember my emails at work when I did do that
and got in a load of bother


hey wasn't that board room great!

[Annie]

I did know that all capitols was shouting, nothing else though , like a5baggie if I can send emails, browse the forum etc I'm happy with that.

A certain customer comes to mind, didn't he take offence!!!

[Northern Lass]

I think he took the gate!



Oh Well we had some fun with those customers of ours


Do people still fax?
or is that now redundant?

[a5baggie]

I think Fax got a P45 a long time ago,
who remembers using a Telex ??

[MarkCDodd]

I converted a Telex machine to print from my ZX-81 so that was my first computer printer.

I will tell your a secret.

We fill computers full of jargon and acronyms so they sound far more complicated than what they are.

If everybody realised how easy it is I wouldn't get my six figure income.

I have been in the IT industry for over 30 years and am astounded by the power people have on their desktops or even mobile phones.

I remember those a5baggie the one in our office was quite noisy , what did the call the machine where you typed on a skin for it and it went round a roller then you could print lots of copies , started with a B I'm sure.

So how much money do you earn then Mark?

[MarkCDodd]

Lets just say I used to earn a lot more than 95% of the population but a lot less than a plumber or dentist

But at the moment I am as broke as you can get. I haven't been able to work with the narcolepsy.
