GPS tracking for kids and teens

I was chatting with my big sis who’s based in Finland recently and suddenly she told me she’ll be out for a while since her 7-year old girl just called her up and was waiting for her somewhere. The poor girl went with her classmate after school and got disoriented on her way home. Good thing she got a mobile phone with her.

Nowadays, parents give their kids mobile phones to track their whereabouts and feel secure about being away from them. Some parents can use hi-tech gadgets such as gps tracking devices to track their kids or teens without calling them on the phone. With the advent of new and better techie stuff coming out in the market, it’s just understandable that we make the best use of what technology has to offer as we apply it in our daily lives.

I want a dozen computers!

Yesterday something weird happened. I dunno if it has something to do with the weather or what, but the computers here at home just went on strike! Ugh. First, it was our desktop computer in the living room. My friend (who’s staying with us these days) was busy surfing the net when suddenly the LCD monitor just turned off. We tried to check the connection, restart the computer and all but the monitor just won’t start. So we tried to use my ECS Desknote and guess what… after few minutes of use, the screen just went blank. I booted it up and was surprised to see a WHITE screen screaming at me. Arrgghhh… two computers misbehaving in a day! That left my friend with no computer to work on, so she decided to call it a day since it was late in the evening anyway. Tsk.
