Simon Warburton tagged me in on a staffrm.io ice bucket challenge type of post. Here is my reply.
What’s your earliest memory of technology?
We had an 8 track in the living room and I thought it was really very cool. After that it would have to be my one-person yellow Pac-man game.
What bit of technology frustrates you most?
Probably our Virgin Media box. Our recordings keep losing the last two ro three minutes of a recording and we have to had over to On Demand to watch the finale.
What devices do you use most regularly?
My phone. Since moving to Android, I have found the automated features a real funky additional to my tech.
Like Simon, I have a Toshiba Protege Ultrabook. So portable. The backlit keyboard is a joy to type on. Like Simon, I am of the opinion, it trumps the tablets.
Finish this sentence: technology is…
… only as good as you make it.
That was my gut instinct. Not sure it is right in reflection.
What tips do you have for others?
Don’t be scared, you can’t break it.
I only recently received a Paperwhite e-reader and now I find that the excuses for not reading are no longer applicable. Love the inbuilt dictionary.
Finish this sentence: technology isn’t…
… ?? Really? What it used to be?
Who would you like to answer these questions?
I would like to nominate Allen Heard – as he is currently having difficulty sleeping and this referral will help him fill his time.
