About Episode 20 Switched On Featuring
Stephen Fenech

Technology is such an integral part of our lives. Have a think about it. Just in my lifetime alone the technological changes and growth I’ve seen has been exponential.  I remember when we first got our colour TV set! I didn’t grow up with a telephone; we used the public phone box around the corner. I recall getting our first stereo system but we never had a VCR. My children on the other hand will never know a life without technology.  So… what does that mean? Well, in today show that’s exactly what we’re exploring.

Stephen Fenech is a journalist with more than 25 years experience, was the creator of News Limited’s successful weekly consumer technology liftouts that were designed to appeal to people who didn’t know much, if anything, about technology. Now Stephen is bringing that concept to the internet via his website Tech Guide which has been designed to appeal to readers of all ages keeping them updated and educated about the latest trends, products and information. You can even get advice on the best product for you from Stephen himself with the Interactive Buyer’s Guide and even email Stephen directly to get his advice. Stephen travels all around the world speaking on all things tech. He’s currently in New York for the global launch of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S at Madison Square Garden. Last week he was at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco. Ooh… I would have loved to have been at that one. Stephen is also the co-founder and co-creator of my favourite social media app called Voicebyte with his brother Michael Fenech who I also interviewed on episode 16 so make sure you have a listen to that one to find out more about the app.
