Spending too much time on the computer can cause various problems such as eye strains, back and neck problems and well as damaging your posture.  It can also damage your eyes which can cause migraines. Eye strains can cause the following symptoms; soreness of the eyes, bad headaches, blurry vision and dry burning itchy eyes.  If you recognize these symptoms I would recommend that you see a doctor.

Spending too much time on the computer can also affect your social life.  Many people spend less time actually taking to their friends and more time texting and on social networking sites.

Using your computer vast amounts every single day can also cause problems to the environment. It uses electricity which could be used for something more productive. Also many people leave their computers on standby which wastes electricity.

Always remember, don’t spend too much time on the computer, and if you do have breaks every half an hour so you don’t strain your eyes and always switch it off properly.

It manager.
They have to be honest and hardworking because you don't want to get sacked if you weren't honest. you would have to be hard working because they would get good money from working for you.

You have to be confident because you wouldn't want someone in a meeting to not be confident and not know what they are talking about.

You have to be a team worker. you would have to be this because you have colleges and they work for you so you have to communicate well.

You have to be patient. You have to be this because you cant be short tempered because if a student says something you cant just lose it and go mad at them because you would lose your job.

You have to have good leadership. Because you are a manager and you are a leader of the department or a certain leader of something. And you have to be able to lead a team. and you need to make them want to be in the part of the project.

The way to keep your devices safe is very simple you just need to follow very simple steps and be careful what you do, for example you should change your password regularly so if a case that you do get hacked or someone discovers your password, you will still be safe and they can not do as much damage as they would have done if they knew it permanently. Also be wary if you give out your vital information that no one is around that could use against you or you do not trust.(i would recommend not telling anyone at all.)  Be careful when you access your email or whatever you need to keep safe make sure you log out because some websites will leave you logged in for the future but someone else could access it.

Most Wi-Fi hubs are encrypted so that you will not be hacked and your information will not get stolen or seen.(Encrypting is a way on concealing information to keep you safe.)

I would use an i phone as a delivery driver because it has GPS e.g. SavNav.  It shows you the easier directions. IT will the company because it will take you the fast route and it will save you petrol instead of going the long way. You can also use tracker. Tracker tracks down the colleges and they can see if they are doing there job properly.  And/also if they get lost people can track them down and tell you where to go! You also use Voice Control so if your hands are too cold to type you can just say the message and it will type it for you. All of these things will make the company more efficient.

A mobile communication device for the following people:

·        A student who needs a mobile phone with internet access-

http://www.vodafone.co.uk/brands/blackberry/pay-monthly-blackberry/index.htm

I have chose this phone for the student because it is quite cheap, £15.50 a month, and you still get a good deal with plenty of internet, texts, calls and an added bonus of the blackberry messenger service so the student can communicate with friends who also have a blackberry phone with out cost.  The phone has a QWERTY keyboard, so it is easy to browse the internet easily. I looked at other phones, with cheaper contracts but you couldn’t get a decent amount of internet for less than £15 a month

·        Self employed builder who is new to technology and has £600 to spend on a laptop for invoicing-

    Panosonic Tech Book.  I chose this because it is very durable for the builder who may want to take it to work so it wont get damaged.  The laptop has:

·        14” screen

·        Waterproofed keyboard

·        Carrying handle

·        Journalist who needs a electronic tablet when on location-

http://www.portagadgets.com/uk/BlackBerry-PlayBook-64GB.html#googlebase

I chose the Blackberry tablet.  I chose this because it is easy to use and has all of the same outstanding features that the iPad does, just cheaper. The journalist will be able to take the slim tablet anywhere on the go and access all of it’s amazing features.  I also chose the 64GB tablet because the journalist will be doing a lot of work, so will need a lot of memory.

·         A factory worker who wants to listen to an MP3 player on the bus-

http://www.cashgenerator.co.uk/ipod/apple-ipod-nano-3rd-generation-4gb-da405?utm_source=google&utm_medium=merchant&utm_campaign=shopping

I chose this 2^nd hand 3^rd generation iPod nano for the factory worker.  I chose this because the iPod is very cheap, just £39.99, and a slightly older model but still as good, I don’t think it matters that it is an older model because it still does just as good job.  The iPod is also very durable and has lots of memory space.

The methods mobile devices communicate are called protocols, you need to identify and describe all the protocols used by an up-to-date mobile phone and a laptop, giving examples of the file types you would send over these protocols.

Bluetooth-

Blue tooth has two classes.  Depending on the class the range is different.  Class 1: range up to 100 metres. Class 2: range up to 30 metres.  The range depends on the transmitter and the phone receiving the files. The bigger the range, the slower the transmission speed. The closer you are to the Bluetooth transmitter the faster it will send files.  Most phones have a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth can send all files such as photos, documents and music files.  Bluetooth comes as an installed device on most phones.

GPS-

GPS is a satellite device used for positioning.  It is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather, anywhere on or near the Earth.  GPS is used on sat-navs Tom-Toms
