About this guild

This guild is about technology in its widest sense. How science and technical advances have impacted our day-to-day experience, how communications have changed the pace of life whilst also impacting on health, business, finance, productivity and relationships as well as creating concerns over privacy and surveillance; how we can adapt and make the most of what's out there. Re discuss internet, computing, gadgets, games, apps and lots more.
