Have you been having an issue with your computer lately? Some strange sound coming from within the case? Is your laptop freezing?
Have an important web presentation later but you can’t seem to get your webcam working? Is your network running incredibly slow and you can’t quite figure out why? Trying to print a document and your laptop just won’t talk to the printer?
If so, you probably need a techie. Techies are those wonderful people who know their way around the technology that is inseparable from our daily lives, and Techies Day celebrates them and everything they do to keep things moving every day.
So what, exactly, is a techie? A techie is an individual who is deeply interested in technology and seeing it move forward.
When a new tech toy comes out, you can guarantee that it was a techie who designed it, and other techies who will be the first to own it.
The bane and balm of a techie is obsolescence, the unavoidable process by which current technology becomes obsolete as new tech gets developed and integrated into our lives. In modern days, Information Technology experts are specifically referred to as Techies, and unsurprisingly so as they’re the ones who keep our offices moving forward.
