When you think of telegrams（电报）, you probably picture your grandparents sitting by the phone waiting for a message. You might also remember being a kid and sending your mom a text or email asking her to pick up milk on the way home from work. You wouldn’t be wrong if you thought these were the only two times people still use telegrams today—but you’d also be missing out on the fact that there are many more reasons why people love using this old-fashioned method of communication.
Telegrams are short, sweet, and to the point.
You may be wondering why telegrams are so short. You could easily send the same message by email, text, or phone. All of these are longer than a telegram. Why would anyone prefer to write such a short message?
Well, there are a few reasons:
[Short messages are better than long ones](https://www.theguardian.com/science/2011/jul/26/email-full-sentences-contractions)
[Short messages are more efficient](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-vanek/the-case-for-the_b_5694056.html)

Telegrams have a more personal touch than electronic communication.
Telegrams are faster and more reliable than email.
Telegrams are more reliable than phone calls.
Telegrams are more reliable than text messages.
Telegrams are more reliable than social media, which can be shut down at any time by a government or corporation that doesn’t like what you’re saying!
Telegrams mark special occasions.
Telegrams are an excellent way to send a message for a special occasion. Whether it’s your birthday, a wedding, or just because you want to make someone’s day, telegrams are the perfect way to do so.
If you’re looking for something different that shows how much you care about someone and their life events, then look no further than telegrams.
Telegrams give recipients something tangible to hold onto.
There is something special about receiving a telegram. It’s not just the fact that it’s tangible; it’s also that in some ways, it seems more personal than an electronic message. A telegram is more memorable than an email or text message because it has been sent directly to you and can be kept by you as physical proof of your friendship with the person who sent it.
Telegrams are greater keepsakes when compared to other types of messages.
Telegrams are more personal than any other type of message.
Here’s why:
Telegrams are more personal than email. An email is usually a form of communication used to send quick messages, but it doesn’t have the same emotional impact as a telegram because you’re not sending your words and having them read out loud by someone in person.
Telegrams are more personal than social media. Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter allow you to communicate with people from all over the world, but because those interactions aren’t face-to-face or connected by an actual telegram delivery service, they aren’t quite as intimate as sending one through that service would be.
Telegrams are more personal than text messages (SMS). Texting has become one of the most common ways for people today to communicate with each other—especially young people who don’t have access yet (or want access) only through their phones at home instead; however, because texting is done over modern technology such as cellular data networks which could go down due earthquakes or hurricanes without power lines being available we’re back again where things can get cut off without warning so there’s no guarantee those messages will reach their destination if something happens between now and when they arrive at its intended recipient’s phone number within their carrier network coverage area where they currently reside since nobody knows when exactly those towers might go down unless they’ve been notified ahead of time (which rarely happens).
People still like to send telegrams for a variety of reasons
If you want to send a special message to someone, a telegram is the best way to do it. It’s more personal than text messages and emails, as well as more emotional than an ordinary phone call.
When it comes down to it, people still like to use telegrams for a variety of reasons:
They’re short, sweet and to the point (like this article).
They mark special occasions. If your grandpa just turned 100 years old or if your friend got married last week then get them some telegraphic congratulations!
Telegrams are tangible keepsakes that last longer than other types of messages—they can be kept in scrapbooks forever or framed on walls as decoration.
Conclusion
As you can see, telegrams are still a popular way to communicate with friends and family. Telegrams have some things that electronic messages don’t have–they’re short, sweet, and to the point. They’ve also got a more personal touch than email or text messaging. The last reason why people like using telegrams（TGä¸æ–‡ï¼‰ is because they’re great keepsakes that can be kept for years without going out of style (unlike other formats such as greeting cards). If you’re looking for a special way to send someone your love or just want something fun with which kids won’t argue over who gets it first then look no further than sending them one of these little beauties today!
