Phone numbers are also more professional in the fashion Internet era, separated by "points"

According to the Oriental Morning Post, if your business card is printed with the phone number "××××-×××", consider modifying the style. Researchers from American symbolic studies believe that the use of "dot" instead of "horizontal bars" to separate phone numbers will make people look more professional, because phone numbers with seemingly IP addresses are more in line with the development trend of globalization.
        
Imagine the differences between the two phone numbers "6247-1234" and "6247.1234? Many people will disagree that this is just a different form. However, American symbolic research experts do not think so. They found that the separation of telephone numbers from "horizontal bars" to "points" is a phenomenon that arises with the rise of the Internet, the characteristics of this era of globalization will become a popular trend in the future.
David Messi, a historian who has been studying the telephone industry for a long time, said that with the rise of the Internet, the separation points on IP addresses began to become popular and gradually moved from network addresses to phone numbers. As a result, Americans who are used to using horizontal bars as separators have adopted "points ". "This is an era of globalization. Networks bring us closer, and this is also reflected in the small details of telephone numbers ." Messi commented.
Tracy Wilson, a famous American art design consultant, said her research findings found that "points" are more "modern" than "horizontal bars" and more "elegant and elegant ". The founder of Nimble Communications Corporation, janavit zatlan, also believes that using dots to separate phone numbers "makes the company and personal image look more internationalized ".
If this is not enough to convince stubborn people, the designer will give another reason to use "points. Wilson, who has excellent experience in visual art, pointed out that using "points" on personal business cards can reduce space more than "horizontal bars. "And they are more visual ." Wilson said, "In fact, from the aesthetic perspective, connecting two letters on the horizontal bar may easily lead to reading barriers ."
