This Internet Age of Ours
Few days back, I was just wondering about this internet age of ours, the unlimited power of this invention. About a decade back, if I had to travel from my home (in Delhi) to my aunt’s place (in Mumbai), I would go to a ticket counter at a nearby railway reservation counter, stand in the queue for a long time waiting for my turn. And finally, when I reach the ticket window I would be sent back to change my train number as the reservation would not be available in the requested train. I cannot describe the disappointment, anguish and torture of booking a ticket. And did I mention I need to go at least a month in advance. But if, I have to travel today, all I need to do is just click, click and click. No waiting in long queues, no traveling involved to visit a nearby booking center. How convenient is all this. A lot of us have reading as a hobby and even if you don’t have, at least , if you belong to a typical middle class Indian family, reading daily newspaper is a customary. Knowing
