Personal data and communications

Digital devices are quickly becoming the norm for how we collect, use and store our personal information. Digital cameras have made taking pictures and storing them more convenient, and many people use devices like MP3 players to enjoy their favorite music and movies on-the-go. Digitizing and storing your music and movies is a snap with digital media players and applications, and some online services have simplified organizing and storing your digital photos. Explore these and other technologies that help you enjoy and organize your life.

Communicating online began with sending e-mail from a personal computer, and although this mode is still prevalent, you can now send e-mail from anywhere via handheld personal digital assistants (PDAs) and via many cellular phones. In addition, you can try your hand at sending text messages from your cellular phone, PDA or computer.
