• Saudamini JainFor twenty-somethings! Hide
• Saurabh JYou wish, Saudamini. WhatsApp is for all ages now
• Saudamini JainBut WhatsApp anxiety is not! Hide
• Saurabh JSaudamini Jain, my nemesis in the real world, meet Joydeep Sen Sarma, my nemesis in the online world. I can't be bothered to try and win an argument with either one of you
• Saurabh JBTW, Saudamini, thanks for pushing the point that I'm still twenty something. I appreciate it
• Joydeep Sen SarmaI never really used WhatsApp. Its interesting to see that something has so much effect and one doesnt even understand it. I am total uncle-ji at this point Hide
• Saurabh JDude, whatsapp is just sms. You can't be old enough to not have used sms. WhatsApp just brings back good old free sms with group chat features.
• Joydeep Sen SarmaThats why I am even more perplexed. How does that cause anxiety ? Are u pitching over WhatsApp ? I figured u better not be proposing. Hide
• Saurabh JA whole lot of business communication has moved to whatsapp. As well as personal conversations such as this one. WhatsApp has replaced sms, yahoo messenger, email, phone calls and Skype chats for a lot of people. You should totally be using it in your startup. At Thinvent we have multiple groups by subject. Internal email communication has pretty much vanished.
• Joydeep Sen SarmaWe are on skype all the time. No WhatsApp. Customer service on WhatsApp too. And Skype forwards calls from my US # to India. Wouldnt exist without it Hide
• Saurabh JErgo you have Skype anxiety I use a combination of Google Phone and Call centric for US phone forwarding. I get a ring on my cellphone as well as desk phone. Works great for me.
• Joydeep Sen Sarmacall centric - interesting - never heard will check out. i have email anxiety. everytime i think about what i am doing in this world i am just reminded of the picture of an overworked office worker with a gigantic IN pile and not enough OUT. Hide
• Saurabh JSuper like the above comment.
• Saudamini JainWhatsApp anxiety is for potential relationships and bad break-ups. Clearly I'm too young for this conversation. So gentlemen, excuse me while I gracefully exit. Hide
• Joydeep Sen Sarmawhen I was young - most of the anxiety was around the fact that there was nothing to breakup as they say - first world problems. Hide
