I’m surprised payphones didn’t make the list. They seem to be going the way of the dodo.

Hey Dana,

I think in your neighborhood there are 5 different companies publishing phone books, and all of them losing customers in the quicksand.

Happy Christmas – will I see you tomorrow at the tweetup?

Julie

P.S. Will – great post!

Thanks for sharing this list, Will. Enjoyed the laugh and the insight!

Wonder how many people receive 2 copies of phone books in their driveway? Such has been the case for us with recent deliveries. They immediately go into the recycle bin!
