The following survey result is taken from the Ofcom front page: www.ofcom.org.uk
Ofcom asks
Which communication service could you not live without?
Internet (62.0%, 147 Votes)
Mobile phone (19.0%, 46 Votes)
Radio (15.0%, 35 Votes)
Digital TV (5.0%, 11 Votes)
Total Voters: 239
Not really a representative survey if you consider just 239 respondents all of whom had to be online to respond however perhaps this is a genuine indicator of the evolving public perception of the Internet from toy to tool, from useful to utility. This should also be something that those involved in delivering Digital Britain should take notice of.
They are alienating the public by focusing on illegal P2P file sharing. Not because we feel it should go unpunished (not all of us anyway!) but because it is getting far too much attention and focus from the powers that be who seem intent on digitally disabling a minority of transgressors some while failing to digitally enable those who really require it.
So come on Mr. Timms... let's refocus your attempts to drag this country into the new age of communications. Your first priority must be the infrastructure, after all, if that is failing, or in the worst cases does not exist at all, then the rest of your efforts are wasted. Work with us to help build the Fibre Generation!

ReplyDeleteProblem: HP Printer not connecting to my laptop.
I had an issue while connecting my 2 year old HP printer to my brother's laptop that I had borrowed for starting my own business. I used a quick google search to fix the problem but that did not help me.
I then decided to get professional help to solve my problem. After having received many quotations from various companies, i decided to go ahead with Online Tech Repair (www.onlinetechrepairs.com).
Reasons I chose them over the others:
1) They were extremely friendly and patient with me during my initial discussions and responded promptly to my request.
2) Their prices were extremely reasonable.
3) They were ready and willing to walk me through the entire process step by step and were on call with me till i got it fixed.
How did they do it
1) They first asked me to state my problem clearly and asked me a few questions. This was done to detect any physical connectivity issues with the printer.
2) After having answered this, they confirmed that the printer and the laptop were functioning correctly.
3) They then, asked me if they could access my laptop remotely to troubleshoot the problem and fix it. I agreed.
4) One of the tech support executives accessed my laptop and started troubleshooting.
5) I sat back and watched as the tech support executive was navigating my laptop to spot the issue. The issue was fixed.
6) I was told that it was due to an older version of the driver that had been installed.
My Experience
I loved the entire friendly conversation that took place with them. They understood my needs clearly and acted upon the solution immediately. Being a technical noob, i sometimes find it difficult to communicate with tech support teams. It was a very different experience with the guys at Online Tech Repairs. You can check out their website www.onlinetechrepairs.com or call them on 1-914-613-3786.
Would definitely recommend this service to anyone who needs help fixing their computers.
Thanks a ton guys. Great Job....!!
