General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
If folk would only embrace technology and use it, they would find it so much easier than it was before the internet came along, and the thing which I think causes the most problems with using technology, is by using smart phones, and to put it in a nutshell, when you used to fill in a paper form, the form would be normally on A4 sized paper, and I noticed that forms which older folk or disabled folk would be required to fill in, would be printed on much larger forms, so that folk could see what they were doing, and it has gone from that, to folk of all ages and disabilities, being asked to fill in forms on a phone, the size of an old post card, and that I think is the problem, if older folk invested in a desktop sized system, and that could be a laptop computer, connected to a large monitor, along with a full sized keyboard and mouse, that is so much easier to use, than a mobile phone, when accessing online services.
