Email

Cognitive Engineering

Are you the type of person that writes carefully considered and elaborate emails? Or are you the type of emailer that responds with one brief unstructured sentence? Whichever it is, emailing has made a significant impact on modern forms of interaction. But has it led us into a world that is void of thoughtful communication? In this week’s podcast, we discuss email. We discuss the origins of email, Google Wave, Whatsapp functionality and the postal service. Finally, we share the communications technologies of the past we wish were still with us. A few things we mentioned in this podcast: - Henry VIII’s love letters to Anne Boleyn https://englishhistory.net/tudor/king-henry-viii-love-letters-to-anne-boleyn/ - Google Wave https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Wave - History of Email https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_email For more information on Aleph Insights visit our website https://alephinsights.com or to get in touch about our podcast email [e-mail]
