Maybe even better.

Without a doubt the smartphone changed our relationship to the internet. We were able to have "information" accessible to us 24/7 instead of having to sit in front of a computer to access it. All of a sudden email become excruciatingly slow. But as it did, people began to realize that slow isn't necessarily bad. I've received "messages" via WhatsApp that simply because of their length would more properly be sent via email (and I admit to sending one or two of these as well). More and more people seem to be changing their WhatsApp preferences so that the double-checks that let us know that a message has been received don't turn to blue so that the sender won't know it's been read. But if that's what we want, why don't we just stick with email which anyway arrives with pretty much the same immediacy.

I previously posted the comic below two years ago in a slightly different context.



But it seems to me that it's call for in this context as well.
