Everything will go directly to PDF or even better to your ebook reader or kindle device. <someone mentioned that a younger person they knew wasn’t using e-mail any more. That person was using Facebook instead. So, how did he contact people who weren't on FB? Seems a very narrow way to communicate unless I'm missing something. FB is about community.

Real time communication will impact TWs as they will need to respond to requests for info on a more frequent basis.

Also, the printed manual is on the way out. Everything will go directly to PDF or even better to your ebook reader or kindle device.

<someone mentioned that a younger person they knew wasn’t using e-mail any more. That person was using Facebook instead.

So, how did he contact people who weren't on FB?

Seems a very narrow way to communicate unless I'm missing something. FB is about community.
