Ask Slashdot: Is the United States Postal Service Obsolete? 291
Xerron asks:
"Now that e-mail is a big deal, friends and family rarely
need to write snail mail leters anymore. And when you need
a package delivered you use UPS or Federal Express, not
the USPS. Is the USPS in trouble? Since e-mail handles the
bulk of short letters and quick notes and UPS and FedEx
handles packages, that leaves the USPS with nothing but
junk mail and Publishers Clearing House mailers.
Could USPD dwindle in the future?" Considering that
less than 50% of Americans are on the Internet, I highly
doubt that the US Postal Service will be obsoleted in the
near future. But I could be wrong. What do you all think?
