Film cameras

The old camera - well, you remember film are - you had to concentrate on every shot, every shot. Because the film was only 24 frames, and they were not restored after use. It has long gone are the days when there was the sound of rewinding the film in the cassette, transporting it to the photo lab and patient expectation of what is still left of your snapshots. In this case, all the cards, of course, belong to the present. After all, in today's digital cameras, unlimited number of shots seems limitless and any bad shot can be deleted with a click. And they still continue to become more and more practical, convenient, and awesome.





Analogue phones

Before there was mobile, all had landlines and some of them even had a rotary dial. But cell phones have changed everything. Last February's research shows that 41% of the population is currently using only mobile phones, and 83% sleep with a mobile phone in bed. Is it too much dependence? Another side effect of the mobile communication era that payphone booths has almost disappeared from the streets of cities, and answering machines have become a thing of the past. For the majority of young people is the only reason that can be installed statsionarnyyts phone, it is a bad signal reception at the cell house, or if the cable package of triple-play services will be much cheaper.



Paper books

Remember the days of sales multivolume encyclopedias? Transformation of books and how we read they were very quickly changed thanks to the Internet. Now, in times of public Wikipedia, the idea of ​​buying in installments 26 huge volumes, it seems absurd. (We're not even talking about the obsolescence of dictionaries that are just collecting dust with the advent of online translators.) And there is no longer any difference what kind of texts are gathering dust on the shelves around the world. More and more people read e-books whose sale this summer for the first time overtaken paper. iPad was succeeded on the throne printed book reigned for 600 years.



Getting lost

Gone are the days when you had to ask how to get to the library. Smartphones greatly simplify life. Now countless applications using GPS for positioning easily and accurately direct you to the desired location. But although now get from point A to point B easier, it means that the days when you could get lost and suddenly discover something new, probably already completely gone. Who has not come out accidentally stumble upon a cozy restaurant with delicious cuisine and pleasant live music. Smartphones with complete review of all the restaurants that may be in your way, finally killed any chance of surprise in an unfamiliar place.

Smart devices is of course very nice, but they make our friends in the lazy. Late for a meeting? There is no reason for concern - just write an SMS that will be after 10 minutes. And no one will be nervous, right? A wrong turn? Give your team the Navigator new route. Oh, error, we must once again gain a new team. And late for 15 minutes in total. Damn, and how people used to meet each other? Oh yes, they did everything in time.



Music videos on MTV

Remember when spinning clips on MTV? Remember, when M in MTV meant "Music" (a word which the company officially removed from his title in February of this year). Remember the days when no one had heard of Snooki? The channel has become popular due to the display of progressive music video now shows only 120 Minutes and Alternative Nation. And the rest of the broadcast transmission and reality shows, which can be described in three words: gym, tan, laundry. Cho of crap?



Cassette players

In the past, when the world was analog, we walked the streets with a cassette player with pride. Then Walkman'y seemed essential and allows us to listen to our favorite music everywhere. But technology has stepped forward. First came the Discman, then the iPod. Our vocabulary added to "em.pe.tri" and "playlist, and such a word as" rewind "completely lost its meaning.



Nice time Nick at Nite

Every night is usually focused on the children's television channel Nickelodeon switches to programs for adults after the kids went to bed. Traditionally, Nick at Nite was the place where the show classics: The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Munsters and later on The Brady Bunch, Happy Days and The Wonder Years, and others. So It was. Since then, the network switched to such contemporary shows like George Lopez, Malcolm in the Middle and Everybody Hates Chris. This is a classic? I think - net.Ya remember asking my parents to go to bed later to see an episode of I Love Lucy. It was a good way to unite the family - I watched their favorite TV shows for the first time. And what children ask now? Re-show them the show last week? (A rerun of a show that was new last week?)



Light brown M & Ms

If you were born in the 80's or earlier and parents are allowed to eat sweets, then you have a good chance to catch the light brown M & Ms. But for those who first tasted sweet in the mid-90s, probably known to color the panel current M & Ms, includes blue

In 1995 the confectionery company Mars have considered overkill for just two shades of brown pills in M ​​& Ms. Therefore, they are excluded light brown and left the red, yellow, green, dark brown and orange. Mars is carried out by means of the competition by offering sweets lovers call a 1-800 number and vote for the most favorite of the suggested colors: blue, pink or purple. Blue won and M & Ms is not the same.



Czechoslovakia

Oh, Czechoslovakia - we are already struggling to remember about you. Now, you seem a very distant country, and this word has become estranged blurts language. What children these days will marvel Twomey football teams and prominent dissidents? Will they pomnut days when the Iron Curtain divided Europe? Will they know what it is when the fight ends with a victory for democracy? Will they regret that because of the ethnic nationalism of you, in 1993, was divided into two parts? There will not be. They just visit Prague, try to read Milan Kundera and will enjoy your cheap beer.



Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator

Before 2003 he was chosen governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger has a long history of being positive, hard and dangerous - at least on the screen. Born in the Austrian politician began his career as a bodybuilder, winning four consecutive titles Mr. Universe. He was memorable in the role of the Terminator (and then of course, and got its current moniker Guvernator), and also starred in such hits as "Conan," "Total Recall" and "True Lies." And then he went into politics. And it is possible only because of his recent cameo in "The Expendables" - militants ode 80 by Sylvester Stallone, children will know about Arnold.
