DemRepub_Sept 2008.pngFor once there is some bi-partisan agreement on an issue.  :-)

Both Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama have used their campaign resources to get their supporters to help that Gulf Coast region in need.


Both have used text messaging to get the word out.

Technology is changing the world politics too.

Good to see that in times of crisis there is no time for politics.

You knew it had to happen.

 

You use your cell phone to check your email, take pictures, get voice messages, and surf the web.


Now you can use your cell phone to bank online.

 

Of course this is only the beginning, and you can expect the technology to continue to expand to meet the demand and needs of every consumer.

My new show deals with the issue of our dependence on Electronic Mail or as we all call it, EMAIL!

Recently, America Online (AOL) released the findings of their 4th Annual Email Addiction Survey, and some of the results about our use and need for email was very interesting.

Do you have an email addiction?

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit the America Online Corporate Offices and speak with Erin Gifford of AOL Corporate Communications to discuss the results of their Annual Survey and other tech issues.

"TALKING TECHNOLOGY WITH LEROY JONES, JR."

August 14, 2008

TOPIC: EMAIL ADDICTION

Postcard_August 2008.gif

Traditionally, August is the vacation month.  With the use of technology we can communicate by email and text almost instantly.

 

It almost makes you wonder . . . why even go on vacation?

 

In the U.K., it seems that technology may have helped inspire people to communicate the "old school" way.  The postcard is the new hot item to send.  Simple and very direct.

 

In a world that has become increasing isolated and cold.

It is good to know that not everyone has lost that personal touch.

 

Happy and Safe Travels.

 

I will be looking for my postcard from you in the mail!  :-)

Caution_July 2008.jpgAre you looking down getting ready to send that important text message then . . . BOOM . . . you run right into that brick wall?

Doctors are saying that you are not alone in getting hurt while texting.

It seems that folks are getting injured more by not paying closer attention while communicating.

Be careful.

Make sure you look up and don't run into the wall!
