Things I can’t live without


JOSH It probably sounds ridiculous, as there are lots of other things you can use
now to
save data, but I’ve found my memory stick is really the best. It means I
can carry it
with me anywhere and just use it on any computer – and I’ve got instant
access to my
documents. It’s a good back-up, too, in case the hard drive on my laptop
goes wrong.
MAX I can’t live without my webcam. I bought one last year because my laptop
is quite
old and didn’t have a webcam. It’s just so much fun when I talk to my
best friend.
(He’s having a gap year in the States at the moment.) He can show me
where he is and
who he’s with and sometimes he just leaves the camera on. That way, I’m
almost with
him while he’s spending time with his friends!
BECKY I wouldn’t be happy without my tablet. I’ve got loads of apps but my
favourite is a
drawing app. It saves me getting out paper and stuff and I can just do
everything
on the screen and it’s so easy to edit. I don’t really use my tablet for
emailing or
social media.
HARRY My phone is my life! It’s got all my contacts, my photos and my emails. I
have it with
me all the time. I know it sounds a bit crazy but it’s my way of keeping in
touch with
the world 24/7. I love being able to contact anyone at anytime.
DIANA We spent so much on phone calls before we discovered Whats up and
now it’s almost
free to keep in touch with my family. My daughter and her family
emigrated to
Australia last year and we talk almost every day. It’s just the best thing
ever!
TOM No question, my satnav is the best thing in the world! I drive all over the
country for
company meetings and it saves so much time. It means I don’t have to
look at maps
and it’ll always tell me if there are any problems on the road. Of course,
you hear
stories about how people follow the directions even when it’s clear that
they’re wrong
but 99% of the time it’s brilliant!

0 uses technology for business travel? Tom
1 finds technology lets them carry work with them?
