A Different Microsoft World
I have a client who communicates exclusively via Microsoft Word. If she has something to tell me, I’ll receive an email with nothing in the body, but a Word doc attached. That’s where she writes her message. Whenever she wants to email me a photo, she does so via an empty Word doc with said photo set as its background. But my favorite thing was the first time I witnessed her visiting a website. She had me spell the URL (“W... W... W... dot...”) and with my own two eyes I watched her type it into Word, made it a hyperlink, and Ctrl click it to go there. I was so fascinated I didn’t even say anything. #this person is living in an entirely different world a different microsoft world
A client communicates entirely through Microsoft Word, even using Word documents as email messages, photo containers, and a web browser. The punchline is that she types a website address into Word, turns it into a hyperlink, and Ctrl-clicks it, treating Word as an entire digital universe. This is shared as a humorous reaction to someone who uses familiar technology in an unusually complicated and outdated way.
