It's use most certainly precedes the existence of smartphones and the internet and most likely precedes the existence of computers. A common example might be to leave a note when briefly closing a store or stepping away from ones desk when going to lunch or running a short errand. The note might simply say "Back in one hour", and is frequently accompanied by an indication of the time that the one-hour (or other time period) starts, or ends. | |
