Things Change

Via Kottke:

From a book called Obsolete, a list of things that were once common but not so much anymore: blind dates, mix tapes, getting lost, porn magazines, looking old, operators, camera film, hitchhiking, body hair, writing letters, basketball players in short shorts, privacy, cash, and, yes, books.

A few more I thought of on the fly (not sure if any of these are in the book): yellow pages, VCRs, public phones, kids playing outside, desk top computers, and smoking.
