You know, I called this blog site Lyn the Luddite, because I perceive myself to be a bit of a techno-phobe, but one thing this unit has brought out is how untrue that is. I use tech lots! I use the internet for Facebook and for email, but I also use it for so much more.
I use it for banking.
I use it for shopping (catalogue surfing to see what's on special and buying stuff via eBay, the Nottingham Forest website, Book Depository etc)
I use it for reseach both as a writer and as a student. And as a mum. And for recipes. And for weight loss tips.
I use Google Calendar to keep track of my week so I know when I should be studying and when I should be going to the gym. Talking of which...)
I use it for music downloads (of course I pay. Don't even think to ask :))
I now use it to buy books for my iPad (although, generally, I download the freebies).
And, of course, I access the uni site for information, discussions etc.
I use the internet all the time.
I can also confidently use Microsoft Office, iTunes, Plants vs Zombies etc.
I am not the Luddite you are looking for.
