I don’t consider myself ‘techy’ in any way.
I’m not a fan of technology, I don’t work with technology, I don’t need technology...do I?
I’m typing this on my desktop computer – which is linked to my laptop and my phone is currently plugged in to both too. I’ve used all three devices for different work duties this morning, as well as my personal needs (such as a very addictive game my daughter introduced me to...).
My entire work life is balanced around my use of technology which has developed since my career started while my personal life is managed through apps and message services.
I may be more ‘techy’ than I’d dare admit to myself ordinarily.
Unsurprisingly, editing a magazine focused on ‘tech forward’ issues was an easy one to produce. It also gave this ‘tech behind’ writer a chance to learn a lot.
From finding out more about how the States are digitising services and archives, to the entrepreneurs getting a helping hand from the Digital Greenhouse, it’s been an exciting read as the articles have come my way this month. The future really is digital and Guernsey can still be at the forefront.
With businesses such as Mercury, WCS, and Guernsey Electricity – and sports clubs such as Guernsey FC – all embracing developing technologies, there is so much for us all to benefit from through these services.
Plus, with GFC mapping their players’ abilities to fine tune their training it makes for an even more exciting day at Footes Lane.
Technology aside – we were thrilled to see so many people take part in Our Race for Life raising tens of thousands of pounds for Cancer Research UK.
They all proved that whatever developments there are in technology – and cancer research is dependent on that – human nature, our hunger for learning and the ambition to push ever further forward, is what drives everything and keeps us connected.
