When I receive a package from a company via registered mail, they still wanted me to mail them back an acknowledgement receipt so that my password will be activated for me to access their website.
I was thinking again… Can I just activate my password via their website then?
With the use of the Internet with more and more usage of advanced computers, more and more companies are already cutting down on printing papers for their paperwork. We can use computers more efficiently since the Internet has connected all our computers together. Paperwork can be authorized through the Internet. Fraud can always be there whether you are using computer or paperwork. It’s all about the effort to make things easier and faster.
Even though I do hear this word “environmental friendly” many times everywhere, there are still a lot of places where papers are more preferred, such as the following:
1) photographs versus digital pictures
2) book organizer versus personal digital assistant (PDA)
3) “signing on contracts” versus “clicking on a button to agree on the website”
4) fax versus email
5) book versus ebook
6) “reading from the monitor” versus “printing out and read”
I’m actually glad to see the new generations are now moving into digital world where there’s no need to print it out and read. All the information can just be stored in a hard disk, instead of carrying heavy books around. Just hope to see more efforts done…
