IDK about the 76 email by the queen, but by the time the 90's rolled around I would have thought that electronic communications would have been pretty advantageous. Having everything printed out and hand delivered just seems like a waste of time. Particularly for something as large as the executive branch where there are so many secretaries that need to communicate.
Heck, DHS was primarily pitched and founded because of the 9/11 communication breakdown. I have to wonder how much of that was due to the fact that communications were papers flying around everywhere.
- ghaff 3y agoIn the early 90s--and even into the mid--at a computer hardware company there were still execs who had their admins take care of all that stuff. There was a big mindset to break, probably mostly with a new generation, for many senior people in the computer industry. (To be clear, most people used email all the time--initially internal and then external as well over time.)
