Thank God for technology!

 

Over the decades technology has evolved and it has helped people out.

 

From something like a sat nav to stop people getting lost, to a calendar reminder to stop husbands from forgetting their anniversary, there is some technology that has helped everyone.

 

What piece of technology can you not live without any why?

 

Mine would be my mobile phone (no matter what brand it is as long as it is not an ancient phone) because it helps me to stay in contact with people with texts and calls, allows me to share things on apps, check and send emails on the go, listen to music and remind me of calendar events.

Same Gemma.

Everything that keeps me organised is within it.

A slave to tech. 😁

I've read the stories where people have followed Sat Nav's too literally and ended up stuck or worse.

Well not so much Live Without ..,,

But life would be less enriched without items such as my MBA to keep connected with friends , colleagues and past acquaintances.

I don't watch much Tv but I'd miss it.

A phone for texts and calls. Now there's a novelty.

It would appear many young folk don't know what calls are. They say they "talk" to their friends but only ever text or instant message. Indeed some young people will text each other when in the same room. 

 

The joys of 21st century tech

Not a tangible item, but I can't live without it! Spell checker.

 

Without it, I would have failed university and probably high school. I'm also very lazy so not having to actually learn how to spell is great! The best crutch of all time.

Ummm.....I think you should have used it in your reply. It's tangible.

That's the result of trying to spell without spell checker.
