The Week: Magazine

During my second visit to the dental clinic, as I was waiting at the reception, I came across a recent edition of 'The Week' published from Kerala, rather Keralam. It brought in memories of my younger years during which I was a regular reader of this magazine. 

The edition contained a very interesting article on technological developments from the pre internet years to the current state. It included different versions of MS Windows beginning from Windows 3.1, messaging platforms, email platforms such as Yahoo and Hotmail, Database packages such as Foxpro 2.0, and many others that are of historic importance. As some one with some experience in using computer since the late 1980s, the article was interesting to me. I'll try to provide a link to the article when possible.

This morning, I found a very interesting article in the online version of The Week. Let me share the article here.
