Another sign of the death of the Yellow Pages

A shrink wrapped package of 10 telephone books

I live in an apartment building with 39 units. When the telephone books were dropped off only ten books were left for all 39 apartments.

And after a few days only three books had been taken by residents. (And one of them was taken by my four-year old who thought that she needed to have a phonebook.)

So, if less than 10% of the residents think they need telephone books I'd say that the writing is well and truly on the wall.

I can't remember when I last used a telephone book, and the copy my daughter brought home will be going out in the recycling this week.
