<a href="https://blog.teamwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/teamwork-chat-mobile-app-featured-image-1.jpg" >Source</a>

I was trying to find an old picture but could not find it on and of my picture fodders. I then remembered that the laptop that had the pictures was stolen from me last year. What a bother. I lost a lot of archives on that laptop, some stuff were older than 20 years. As I was busy in my thought wondering how some stupid person would just destroy records that took me years to build, I now remembered I had sent the picture to my brother way back in time via yahoo email. I went to my yahoo email and changed the sorting of messages from oldest to newest, funny thing is, this is the first time I am using such menu and sure enough I got the picture I was looking for. 


<h3>Chatting on Yahoo Messenger</h3>	

I discovered we use to chat on yahoo messenger back in the days and it was cool then. In fact, we use to brag about it back in the days, we didn’t have facebook and all the stuff we have now, but we cherished our yahoo messenger as if it was gold. It was harder for us in Nigeria back then because we didn’t have access to mobile phones as there was no licensed mobile operator in the country then so there was nothing like texting, the extremely rich guys who were very few bought Alcatel cellular phones that were big and came with an antenna and was using satellite technology. We used to fix appointed when we saw ourselves that on this day and at this particular time I will be online so that we can chat. You had to remember the date and the time and needed to rush to a cyber café probably sometime before the appointment so that you could get a vacant desktop to pay for internet time. You sometime waited and waited and waited for your friend and sometimes you paid for an extra hour of internet access. A lot of relationships got broken because the other person forget to come online. Lol. 


<h3>What We Have Now</h3>	

What we have now in my own opinion is too much. Lol. Phone texting, Whatsapp, Facebook, Discord, Twitter, Instagram, Partiko (lol) and so many others. Phones keep buzzing and vibrating every second, people calling for our attention and want us to respond immediately, men, it’s hard to believe we are able to get some work done at the end of the day. Sometime I put my phone on silent mode so that I can just stay focused for some time. Of course it is going to get better and worst depending on how you look at it. Almost everything is getting a mobile version of itself except wife and children of course, lol. Competition to grab our attention is getting hotter and hotter every day and they are really grabbing our attention we see people getting killed or killing others while walking or driving because they were on their phone. People are falling into ditches or having accidents on constructions sites because they were on their phone and wasn’t looking at where they were going, some also forget their kids at the park or in the market place because of the madness to stay in touch. We all just need to be careful because the next stage might see people going crazy. Lol.

I am very sad to hear that you had your laptop stolen. that happened to my daughter as well and it had all their wedding pictures in it. I have all notifications either turned off or silenced. Can't stand to be constantly interrupted...

I am telling you it can be heart rendering. Each time I try to find a picture of something I took way back I remember the laptop, as I was writing this post it still was hitting me hard. Even though I have a far better laptop now I still would have given the person that stole it this one to get my old one back.
