Kela<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I get familiar with Kela when a started studying in high school and all way through to when I was studying. In work life I don\u00b4t need as much, only when I was unemployed briefly. Pages have changed and it was easier to use compared how it was back then. As a YAMK student I must pay healthcare fee for the first-time last fall. I noticed that there are some other changes coming it this year, for example you can take more student loan from next fall. European Health card I have had for years because I need it for traveling in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omakanta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last time I used Omakanta it was two years ago. I just needed T-certificate for work, so I called for that, because I didn\u00b4t find it on the webpages. Call was registered to the Omakanta, and I found it there. Omakanta is good for healthcare, that everything is found in a one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keva<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I checked Keva last time year ago and I helped someone with that service. It was nice to see how much time is still left for retirement (it was a lot). Calculators were easy to use in the webpage. If I work longer (to 70 years old) I will ger more pension. Pension wasn\u00b4t very much at this point, but I still have many years to work before that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

eBay.com<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I have been using eBay for almost ten years. Somethings I do not find in Finland so that is why I have ordered from there. This is dependable if you check information about the seller and keep common sense. If something is too good to be true or something is just off about product, I do not buy it. Nowadays I have to remember customs, so I prefer buying products in Europe. Other sites that I use is huuto.net and tori.fi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thomann<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thomann is online music store. Where I live, we don\u00b4t have music store anymore, so you have to drive nearest city or order online. Thomann is reliable and prices are industry standard. In Finland, many stores compare their prices to this website, and it is maybe the biggest competitor. Downside in this website has been that some stores have been closed, because not every store can\u00b4t match the prices and people order nowadays many things from online stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digitalization and digital gap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Digitization came fast, and more things are moving to digital world. It isn\u00b4t always a good thing, because people may have lack of skills how to use them. Even some people lack basic computer skills because some of them are just using smartphones. Some things need human employee if you need detail information about something or ask questions. Luckily, many courses are free of charge where you can learn digital skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital Competence Test<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Digital Competence Test was easy to do, and it takes time just over ten minutes. Competences were quite accurate. I use mainly storage space and I do critical evaluation about digital services. There is more to learn about automation and health for digital point of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Self-reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Living as a digi citizen it is easy for me. All the services that I need are simple to use. There is still much to learn about and up with the development. I learned many new things, mainly it was recap for that I have previously learn, but I had new insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just saw new Apple Vision Pro on Instagram. Vision Pro blends digital content with physical world. There were eight examples, and one was my field from music. Example was Piano: Flowing Tiles and it was pretty groundbreaking for learning. I have seen some of the students using that on phone and with Vision Pro you can see what keys to play and what time totally different way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comment 1<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Good presentations about different services and individual experiences. Photos were nice touch to texts and layout was clear and colorful on the pages. It is great that you have tried different services online and use them regularly. For traveling I can not even imagine anymore to go physical travel agency anymore, because it is so much cheaper and easier do it online. Dangers are that if you go to the wrong page you can lose your information to the wrong hands. It was good that you mentioned security point of view and other dangers too. It is valuable to know what is safe to do and know the risks on virtual world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
