Communication with SMS has alot of social disadvantages and advantages. The disadvantages are that they stop you interacting with people in a physical way and also by using SMS the reciever of your text will not no if you are being sarcastic or not, because they cannot see your facial expressions or you body language, this can end up with the person on the other end getting the wrong idea about the content of your SMS. However the advantages are that if you are shy then you can get to no someone without making yourself look like an idiot in front of them.
The social downsides of firing off a quick email rather then having a short convosation, are that again you could make the email sound like something it isnt. For example if you put sarcasum into the email then that could be interpreted in a different way.

anaylsising the good old days
Two applications he could use are microsoft access and excel.
These both have there advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of Access are that you can automatically fill in forms from other spreadsheets and databases so this saves you the hassel of doing it by hand. An advantage of using excel is that it can do calculations automatically and work out percentages and charts from your data this is very good for anyone, or any buisness because it saves them alot of time and money.
secretaries and typists were affected by these office packages because they found they are no nger need as much as they were because anyon e can do their job now so there is no need to hire as many, hwereas before they were the only people who could do that job. I think that access affected them the worst because it can do everything they can but quicker and with no faults, this is the same with excel the calculations wil always be right, because there is little human input so there is no room for human error.
However when these new office applications alot of new jobs became avaliable. Some examples of jobs are computer programers, and computer anaylsises. These new office applications made way for a whole new carrer which was the digital carrer. These carrers required lots of work because these systems had never been used before so no one really knew what they were doing on them.

analysing the good old days
two programs that they could use are microsoft access and microsoft excel. If they used these programs they would save paper and be able to manage their accounts easier. Two advantages of these programs are it is enviromental friendly, its quicker then using paper, also it stops human error. Access can be used alot more effiently then excel because you can make forms that automatically fill them selves in, which saves you time and effort.

problems
However there are problems with this one is he may turn on the pc and get a blue screen, or the battery may die or the files may be curupted and no longer work. Also all these items cost alot of money, such as a laptop, for a good one you are looking at about 600-700 pounds, or if you want a really nice one you are looking at £1200-£2000
tool man
If John had a laptop he could overcome alot of his problems, such as the need to carry a bulky sales catalogue containing all the lastest prices. if he had a laptop he could download it all to a single file and find the price which much more ease. Also If he had gps or sat nav he would no longer get stuck in trappic because the new sat nav will detect an accident and then re plot your route around the accident. If he had a mibile phone then he could inform cilents that he might be late and can also do calculations on his mobile, because it will have a calculator on it, also if he got the right phone, like the iphone or a sony walkmen phone he could also listen to his music on there whilst he drives or whilst he is walking to a client, also he would not have to carry coins around for the phones because he can simpley make a call to that person also if he had contract he would not have to top up the phone either.

Online Entertainment
The lastest online entertainment i have used was the playstation 3, on here we played guitar hero 3, this was very entertaining watching how into the game people get and the how hard the actual game is. If you play this game online you can purchase bonus songs such as the top gun athem, also you can play people across the world at any point. The limitations are the wireless can drop out as can be hard to connect at first. Also if you have slow internet connection speed it will make or gaming slower.
Downloads
In my family i am the only one who really downloads items. The items i download are music from itunes which i do on a regular bases, also i will download the lastest versions of certain programs such as itunes and the new windows programs and apple updates. I also download the new version of AVG everytime i turn on my computer this is done automatically by the program and keeps the program up to speed with any new virus's and replaces any old programs with the newest versions. I rather download these items because it is quicker then going to the shop and buying the program or going out and buying the cd, also if i only want one song then there is no point in buying the whole cd.
