Postal Service Vs. Email
In this blog I will be discussing the postal service, and email, and the differences between the two. Well first off, to define the postal service, it is mail sent from one person to another, through a government run program, and it is delivered by people. To define email, it is mail sent via the internet, and it is almost instant, with no use for human involvement. To compare the two, email is instantaneous, no people involved, costs nothing, while the us postal service takes time, can get lost, costs money, and in general just more work. Now you may be asking, why don't we just switch completely to email? Well to simply straight it, email still cannot transport mass, meaning it cannot send things such as presents for Christmas. This may happen in the future, but not for a very, very long time! However, the internet is used to send things such as gifts, just take a look at the very popular amazon. We use amazon to find a purchase, enter a mailing address, then they send the item via the postal service. In my head, that is the internet bettering the postal service in a way that people don't have to go down to a ups and send something, they can do it right from their laptops. Additionally, I feel like sending bills such as mortgages for houses is best of the postal system for one reason. The internet is still a dangerous place where hackers can get your info very easily, so in my mind very important things should still be sent physically. To me, those are the differences between the postal service, and email today!
