Mobile Comuting


Just like the internet, the use of mobile comuting is increasing. Take for example the mobile phone, i don't think i know of anyone who doesn't own one. Even my Nana has one! It's evident that to co exist in this world today we must rely on the uses of technology.

Myself and my classmates were at a competition a few weeks ago, staying at the Connemara Coast and I thought it was very cool that i was still waiting for out taxi home, on my phone checking my college emails.

I work in Donegans bar and restaurant in Monasterboice which has been around for the last 80 years, some of the staff are still there since it opened. As old and ancient as the place looks you cannot fault the advances of technolgy. We all posses our own 'fobs' and 'buzzers'. The fob allows us into certain parts of the building only, therefore preventing intruders and buzzers are attached to your trousers and vibrate when the customers meal is ready. Customers are also giving vibrating disks so when we have a table ready it lights up and again, vibates to let them know! Its the crazy little gadgets that make waitresses lives so much easier, you wonder whatyou ever did without them.
