During the early newspaper era, they would write the editor with basic questions like they were google.

It is. I’ve seen ‘Write the Editor’ sections often in the magazines I check out from the library from time to time. IIRC: Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, and The New Yorker have one.

Yeah I read a 30 year old newspaper a while back and it was like super high latency internet. Message board, posts, replies to posts, personals etc. None of that stuff makes it into newspapers anymore…
