Technology runs and I follow to be a gadget Queen

Technology moves so fast that one has to run and follow it to be updated. My first brush with technology was when I learned typing. After that, I moved to an electric typewriter. I picked up the basics of a computer because I knew typing and people of my time had not learned it

In the education sector, I learned to make presentations, take online classes, prepare videos and take Zoom meetings and discussions.

Now I am a technology addict with iPhone, iPad, Kindle that I really like. I also like the television to watch Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Finally, I moved from manual to automatic car.

I have been changing with the times. Now I am a gadget Queen with a fridge, floor cleaner, washing machine, air conditioner, air purifier, RO water purifier.
