Mr B - He spent long hours reading articles and texts on the internet. He started months ago and became more and more attracted to the topic. Of course I helped him from time to time.

Sam - How did you help him?

Mr B - I just asked him a few questions and we looked up the answers together. Then we did a few searches on Google Images and came across a few fascinating articles about new gadgets, inventions and IT events , such as world exhibitions and webinars.

Peter - Sorry, what's a webinar?

Mr B - It is a kind of online workshop. Anybody can join and follow the presentations as well as start online chats about things related to the topics dealt with in the presentations.

Peter - Really? Remarkable! Have you ever participated in a webinar?

Mr B - Not actively, no. But I have read the comments from a couple.

Sam - Oh yeah. What about?

Mr B - One was about the future of robotics - unfortunately it was a little too complicated for either of us!

Sam - And the other?

Mr B - It was about data transfer and storage, which my son got quite excited about. You know him - totally into hardware and performance issues. He's currently trying to assemble his own computer.

Peter - Sorry to interrupt you, but I'd better get back to the office. I've been gone for half an hour; my boss will hit the roof! I must be going.

Sam - Me too. But perhaps we can talk about this capacity issue again next time?

Mr B - Sure! See you tomorrow; or even better: fancy a beer after work?
