Obsolete Skills

Que tal amigos lectores, esta vez he decidido empezar a poner por lo menos 2 entradas por semana en ingles ya que aparte de que me servirá para mejorar en muchos aspectos, en Mi Mundo Azul queremos llegar a saber la opinión anglosajona de los diferentes temas que ponemos. Si tengo errores porfavor haganmelo saber y comenten.

So that this is my first post in English and I will tell you all the skills that are not use nowadays. This idea came up to Robert Scoble, he describes these skills as things we used to know that are no longer very useful to us. These are some obsolete skills:

  • Dialing a rotary phone
  • Putting a needle on a vinyl record
  • Changing tracks on an eight-track tape
  • Shorthand
  • Using a slide rule
  • Refilling a fountain pen
  • Operating a dictaphone
  • Using the eraser ribbon on a typewriter

If you want to know more obsolete skills here is the alphabetic list.

  2. Then you say I´m an obsolete person, because I´ve got these skills.
    Well, it doesn´t matter. Maybe in the future I will use these skills and you won´t know how to do it XD
