Quick and Easy? Ehh, not so much.

As of 2010 people communicate through multiple sites and sources; Facebook, Twitter, email, Myspace, text, phone calls, Skype, etc. We've got it easy! In today's world we can set up our accounts on our phones, get notifications texts, and see each other on webcam. Back in the time of WWl, they waited and they prayed for a single letter from someone who cared. There was no technology back in the day, nothing for people to set up or create, no one heard a ding in their pocket telling them "You've got mail". Waiting week to week was agony for some soldiers. Depending on where they are located changed the amount of time it took them to recieve the letter. I would not want to wait to hear from someone who meant something to me. I am greatful for the technology that is established today.
