Technology: Five things you can’t do now

Here are five things we all USED to be able to do, but can't anymore because of technology.

1. Remember phone numbers. If you know more than two numbers by heart at this point, you're better than most people. That's including your own number.

2. Remember birthdays. Everyone relies on Facebook now. So we only remember the birthdays of our closest friends and family.

3. Do long division. Everyone has a calculator on their phone now, and there are apps for things like figuring out your tip at a restaurant, or dividing up bills with roommates. So no one knows how to actually do it on paper anymore.

4. Write in cursive. If you're like most people, you couldn't write a lower case "K" or "Z" in cursive to save your life at this point. You'd have to look it up first. (See the whole alphabet here.)

5. Remember directions — because we all have GPS now. So when someone starts telling you how to get somewhere, you just zone out. Then, ask for the address instead.
