Communicating with faraway relatives was exhausting. Looking
back at June 2003. We received a letter from an uncle that lived
in Texas. The letter said, “Dear Raul, I’m happy to announce
that my wife and I are expecting a new born child. Back then all
of our communications would be through the United States
Postal Service. After a couple of months went by we received
another postal letter saying that my cousin was born. All of this
communication would take weeks sometime months. However,
there is a new platform that has great new features to
communicate at an easier and faster pace.
