Technology - What Happens When It Fails?

In the world we live in today we cannot cope without all the new technology out there. Computers for instance, if they stop working what do we do? Well, once we have stopped screaming and shouting at the monitor, and hoping a technical support person will pop out and magically resolve our problem we face the facts. Until the computer has been fixed we may have to resort to using a telephone to connect with people.

Telephones are reliable, most of the time. Some telephones actually have the power to send email so our problem is solved. But is it? What happens if the telephone stops working? Worse still what if you have a Personal Digital Assistant, rely on that to send out all your emails and receive them and it stops working?

Food for thought indeed, not only should we not rely too much on all the new technology out there, we definitely should have a back up plan for when our computers or PDAs' fail. Relying on one product or service is a big mistake, have your back up plan in place and you will survive.
