They work by using the internet. You can also use these two websites to share information and pictures to your friends or followers. Also you can use Skype to keep in touch with people using the internet. It is a type of video chat where you can see the people you are talking to you. Iphones, Ipods and Ipads also have a video chat called facetime. This is where you can connect with other people who also have an Iphone etc.

  2. Economic Impacts You can also check your back accounts online and draw money. You can also get apps on the Iphone that do this.

So instead of going to the shop you can order it online and it will be sent to your house. However because the IT has changed a lot there are also a lot more jobs available in different sectors.
