Technology is everywhere． We see it any place we go and， in fact， almost all of us carry some piece of technology with us every time we leave the house． What I always forget， though， is just how useful and powerful technology can be when we want to help others．
There is not a single room in my house that does not have some electronic devices （设备）lying around in it． Whenever I am at home， I am almost always using at least one electronic device． If you walked into my living room on any given day， you would find that， first， I have the television on． At the same time， I usually have my laptop resting on my knee， or I will be using my mobile phone． Even when I'm not at home I am always using my phone， and at work or in cafes， I sit down and connect to the local wireless network on my laptop．
I must say that I waste a lot of time on the computer and the time I spend on it could be much better spent if I were to take up a little online volunteering．
The technology we carry about everywhere can have a great power to do good for the world and to help others and recently I discovered just how much online volunteering there is to do in the world． From using your language skills to do translations， to developing and managing projects and helping with IT work， there is so much that so many people can do to help people in their own countries and across the world． The United Nations， in fact， has a huge page with "Volunteers Recruited" on its website．
This work can support the poor and help charities who cannot pay for staff members． Many organizations only require you to work an hour a week﹣some even less． And the support provided by online volunteers can really help make a difference to those in need．

17﹣year﹣old Brennan Agranoff， a colorblind boy， started his custom sock business in middle school，with a small loan （贷款） he got from his parents． Up till now， he has sold over ￥1 million worth of socks online in the last four years.

Oregon. and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids, then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.
But the boy didn't tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan.

Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a ￥3，000 loan to start his company． Then he began to work on his own designs． The fact that he was colorblind didn't stop him and he has created over 200 designs now．
Business was slow the first year， but then Brennan started pushing his HoopSwagg products heavily on the Internet． Orders soon started coming in large numbers， and HoopSwagg became a popular brand among custom sock lovers． Right now， his designs can be found on HoopSwagg website， Amazon and eBay．

Most people use their mouths to talk， but do you know some people use their hands to speak？ Some people who cannot bear use their hands to communicate messages to others． This is called sign language． These people make shapes with their fingers， movements with their hands， as well as different faces in order to talk to other people．
One way people speak with their hands is by making shapes for letters with their fingers． For example， if you make an "OK" sign with your thumb and finger， that is the shape for the letter "f" in American sign language． Each letter has a hand shape． This way people can spell words using their hands． For example， if you want to spell "fun"， you need to make three shapes． First you make the shape for the letter "f"， then the shape for the letter "u"， and then the shape for the letter "n"．
______．If you move your hand from your nose to your chin（下巴）， you can say "mother" in American sign language． Of course， you have to use the correct hand shape， too． That shape is like holding
your hand open with all five fingers showing． If you move your hand from the top of your head to your chin， you can say "father"． Again， you have to use the same hand shape that you used for "mother"．
Finally， people can change their faces to communicate in a sign language． For example， if you want to ask a question， you need to make your eyebrows（眉毛）go up． You also need to move your head forward a little． If you want to say "I do not know"， you need to make your eyes smaller and make your eyebrows go down．
