Farquharson/Tedesco on Business Development: Do/Don't Leave That Voicemail
Voicemail became popular in the early '80s as an added service (read: added cost) along with Caller ID and Call Forwarding. It eliminated the need for an answering machine and gave us access to messages 24/7 from anywhere in the world. If you are looking for the origin of the mobile office, look no further. Voicemail was the first in a long line of "technology services" that tethered us all to work. Prior to this point, unanswered phones rang incessantly and callers learned to simply try again later. Ah, the good old days.
