Be Wilder With the Floppy Disk

CC-FLP-SL Be Wilder With the Floppy Disk   It’s safe to say we’re now well into the 21st Century.  We’re long and away from dial-up phones and dial-up modems, brick-sized phones, and cathode-ray television monitors.  We’re long gone from the days when 386 computers were the latest in computer technology and pizza was delivered in 30 minutes or less or it’s free.  Things are changing so rapidly that sometimes it’s tough to keep abreast of what the latest technology can do.  Just to check this out, wear a pair of these Floppy Disk Cufflinks to work or wherever, and see if anyone recognizes them.  Chances are, if they do they’re older than twenty-five.  Watch how many times you have to explain what they are.  Maybe they’ll remember them, but it’s been something that has been done away with by digital media like portable thumb drives and the miracle of high speed internet.  Imagine seeing a computer that still utilizes floppies; what could 1.5 megabytes save these days?  Half a song?  Word processing documents and the like?  Funny cufflinks like these will no doubt give you a lot of amusement, as well as some sparkle and fun that silver cufflinks can give to your outfit.  It may have not been too long ago when the 3.5 inch floppy was a mainstay of computer systems but in the years to come as thumb drives slowly phase out in favor of something superior you can only get more and more amusement with these as you bewilder new generations with these relics of a budding Information Age society.
