Week 2 Part A: Communication Between Business & Consumer

 I think the internet has given more clarity and transparency to businesses and what they stand for. We can now communicate with businesses through their websites, chats, email, phone, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and other social media platforms.

Week1A: My Blog Theme

I am 47 years old and I witnessed the creation of the fax machine, the personal computer, the pager/beeper, the cellular phone, and to this date endless of amazing gadgets. Therefore, I feel this theme best describes me. For some reason I cannot get this background to work and doesn't actually show up.
