NEW AGE OF TECHNOLOGY
      04/07/2008 08:58

When I was eighteen I joined the WRAF, and was really lucky in that I was taught to be a shorthand typist, studying Griegs form of shorthand, its totally obselete now.

I learnt to type on an old Imperial typewriter, then progressed on to an electric typewriter, then a wordprocessor, and then of course, a computer.

Things have changed so much we now have Wis, Blueberries, mobile phones that do this, and that, scanners, everything to supposedly make our lives easier.

I can see how in an office, photocopying machines, scanners, and new technology have made life much easier for office staff.

Do you think we have benefitted by all this new technology, or because of them, are we becoming more anti social as we each use these individual technical inventions.

Which item has really improved your everyday lives?
