How the internet keeps us in touch.
I have never been much of a sleeper. In daytime I can feel really tired and find myself having mini dozes, but once the night-time comes I can often find myself wide awake, lying in bed and watching the clock go around.

Wearable tech is gathering pace. From watches to glasses, there is something that everyone seems to be wearing or investing in. What were once seen as a ‘little too techy’, are now seen as essential elements of fashion. But wearable tech is not the same to everybody as an episode from the Apprentice showed. With flashing lights and solar panels, the resulting products lacked finesse and mass appeal but, it did show one thing – that people are now seriously thinking of wearable tech in fashionable terms. And tech is relying on fashion too. In fact, it would seem that the driving force behind creating the necessary mass appeal that…
