Old fashioned viral marketing (word of mouth from two fabulous ladies), enabled by the internet (which is how I got to know them, and lucky to have met 1 already). <br /><br />I did 2 rounds at the Uni too - once pre-internet, once post-internet. The latter was faster and allowed me to multitask but I still think spending time poring over robotics papers, on paper, for my undergrad thesis, somehow made me more familiar with them than the web made me with decision-making (my research specialisation). <br /><br />In the summer of 2004 I did some work with a lobbying firm where the MD and I were the only two people who wore Ray Bans. What do we know? Now every TDH is wearing a Ray Ban tortoise shell, whereas I savour my vintage piece from 1994. Net net, there are great advantages to being old I realise now (better late than never). Every fashion trend from gladiator sandals to Ray Ban tortoise shells is already in my wardrobe, in mint condition, bought at much cheaper prices from around the world than they sell for now. <br /><br />Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.. I would title the post "the Deprived under 30 crowd". ;-)Shefalyhttp://www.shefaly-yogendra.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460005.post-69165970636932340702009-08-30T17:39:03.218-07:002009-08-30T17:39:03.218-07:00lol.

As I approach the ripe old threshold you speak of, I can't help but reminisce, back when email was the big new thing--and now, you're calling it old-school viral marketing, and rightfully so. <br /><br />Especially in light of the old news that some colleges are no longer giving their students an email address.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06562269326490942289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460005.post-10689589106739149612009-08-30T07:07:07.694-07:002009-08-30T07:07:07.694-07:00Wife (30) and I (34) still can't stop laughing...Wife (30) and I (34) still can't stop laughing. Add: if your radio couldn't record the station directly, you had to put two radios face to face and make sure you had absolute silence while recording!
