Essay Plan

I plan on starting  my essay this week and here is a quick plan of things.

Introduction:

Choosing 5 pieces of technology that are vitally important to me was rather demanding at first, because there are some many things I use today, which I take for granted. I really had to think about my 5 objects and the ones I finally decided on are key to my everyday life. While researching my objects, I noticed they each focus upon a popular area in today's world, which is why I feel they support me for every aspect of my life.....

My first choice has to be my laptop without doubt, it has been my most important piece of technology, or any item for that matter, for the past two years. I was rather late to the whole laptop scene, receiving my first on my 18th birthday. Before hand I used the home PC but now that I had my own laptop, I had so much more freedom  and privacy to. The following year my laptop became extremely useful and had a major part to play in choosing animation as a career path.....

Before my laptop, my ipod was my biggest and most favourite item, I literally took it everywhere with me when I first bought it, even to toilet! and nine times out of ten used it when I go out. At the time, being able to have your whole music collection on one device was mind blowing and is something we all take for granted in today's world....

I was tempted to put this choice first, seeing as I don't know how we would communicate without it but Facebook is such a common part of my daily routine that don't know how long its been since I haven't gone a day without it.  Setting my account up in 2008, I have slowly become addicted to this social networking site, along with millions of other users...

Certainly not my first gaming console and probably not my last either, my xbox 360 is my last choice of the 5. This is the most recent piece of technology I have required, only having it since Christmas. In terms of other consoles I have had, the xbox 360 has a unique online gaming experience different to that of the PS3. The online system is run by microsoft, who have vast experience with the internet and know what the gamers want, which is speed and the ability to stay in contact with your friends...
