Why me!?

Why ME!? My dad managed to find what the faulty piece was so he ordered another one. But it was faulty again. So he sent it back, they tested it and another one should come soon. Apart from it's not soon. It's been about three weeks since my dad sent the piece back and it's still not here. And a thought came to my head. WHY ME!? :( Of all the people who could have ever got the faulty piece why me? Has this ever happened to you? If so please comment.

Hello!

Hello those who are reading this and adding to the 600 or so views we've already had on this blog (mostly to do surveys!). Thank you to all the connected people to HJS who've filled in their corresponding survey. Hello to any foreign viewers as at 14/1/13 we've had ten foreign viewers! 8 Americans and 2 Germans have found out about this as well as the 601 British views. I wonder whether any Bhutanese will discover this just coming up to their 14th technological birthday and also the last country ever to have television! (These are all true facts unless Google is incorrect!)

Anyway, I'm Jake and I'm going to talk a little about technology. I've always known how to use most new technologies and I am also very good at picking up how to use new technologies e.g. I've only seen Windows 8 once before and it's so cool!

I haven't ever posted a blog post for two reasons:

•I've never had anything to post it on

•My sister will just tease me if she saw me doing this or on my iPod or on Basecamp (the way we iTribers communicate). This doesn't occur all the time as I do most of my technological stuff immediately after waking up.

Our technology at home is sometimes stupid. One of our computers you can't print from, the other just restarts all the time and takes hours to update. Why can't technology be perfect - soon it will be cleverer than us so what's the point of it just wasting time updating things that never actually seem to be useful?


Bye for now,

Jake :-)

A little thing about me

Hayo, I'm Lily.
I think technology is meant to be something that people enjoy, something that they're going to use because they want to. With what we have at the moment in our school, people start getting a bit impatient spending more than half the lesson sitting round waiting for things to load (I'm speaking from experience here). We (Itribe) are trying to sort out our major lack in some of our technology, we want to extend it and convince people to use it freely. I have come from a very musical background as my dad does alot of recording and editing and adding special effects, I've seen him cut his tracks into pieces and stick them together in different ways including looping it and warping it.
Because of this I'm very in to music combined with technology, and am intrigued to know more. This is the effect of the advance of technology in the modern world.

Tis about me!

Hey, my name's George and I'm the arty kind of  ITRIBE member.
 
The school's tech may not be the worst in the world but to me it is bog-standard. The ipads and imacs, fair enough. But those computers and all the other rubbish tech, seriously?


This is why the ITRIBE is, to put it simply the best idea known to civilization! I think it will revolutionize the way we use technology! The rest of us, with the help of Stuart and Mr Barber will be an amazing team for years to come!

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Luke. I'm a member of ITribe and I will post my thoughts on technology on this blog. Personally, the computers and everything I have are always crashing and not loading or the internet's down or something really annoying that takes ages to fix. Today my computer will just not load or when you boot it up a different way via the menu it just freezes. However good my dad is at fixing things it always takes him ages to do it. Anyway, I will be doing a series of posts like this on the blog. Please comment and show your thoughts.

STILL not working

I've lost count of the amount of days my computer hasn't been working (I'm writing this blog on my mum's laptop if you were wondering). The problems are...
  • Our windows is not recognising the hard disk

  • To save all our data we need to upload it onto a memory stick

  • My dad has not been able to find some of the data

  • My dad is in London from Monday morning to Tuesday evening

  • I'm bored

Also the Xbox power cable isn't working so we have to connect it directly to our power line which means it has to go on the floor. One of my brother's friends always, accidentally, turns it off when we are in the middle of a game.
That's the most recent news of my technology.
