While many of you maybe all sorted for the big day, there are still many of us who aren\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Many of us are still attending daily Christmas gatherings, still working, still trying to entertain kids, shop &amp; most importantly, work out what we are going to serve to 25 people on Christmas day!!<\/p>\n<p>So, let me share with you my top tips on how we can all use the wonders of the internet and technology to get through:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h2><strong>E-Cards<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t done these yet \u2013 and let\u2019s be honest very few do now \u2013 then scrap this idea immediately. But if your guilt just can\u2019t be silenced then check out ecards. I personally love Smilebox but Lifewire has put together <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifewire.com\/best-christmas-e-cards-sites-1171062\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a list of the top ecard sites<\/a>. But remember, always use a reputable site so your recipients as more likely to open them. Cybercrims have been known to send unsuspecting recipients ecards with the aim of trying to extract their personal information.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Online Gift Shopping<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Getting to the bottom of the Christmas gift list takes time. So, if you still have presents to buy then avoid the crowds and get online. There are still plenty of retailers who are guaranteeing delivery before Christmas. So, make yourself a cup of tea and set the timer for an hour. You\u2019ll be surprised how much you can get done when you have a deadline! Finder.com has put together a list <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com.au\/online-shopping\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">of the top 50 Australian shopping sites<\/a> \u2013 check it out! I do have to disclose I have a soft spot for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petersofkensington.com.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Peter\u2019s of Kensington<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.countryroad.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Country Road<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myer.com.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Myer<\/a> online. Great service and speedy delivery!<\/p>\n<p>But please remember to observe safe online shopping habits. Only buy from trusted retailers, look for a padlock at the start of a web address to ensure transactions are encrypted, avoid offers that are \u2018too good to be true\u2019 and don\u2019t ever use public Wi-Fi to do your shopping.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Get Some Extra Help Online <\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t yet used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Airtasker<\/a> to help you work through your to-do list, then you need to start ASAP. Airtasker brings jobs and helpers together in an easy to use app. If your house needs a clean or the garden needs a makeover before the relatives arrive, then log on and create a job and wait for Airtaskers to bid on it. So easy!<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h2><strong>Create an Online To-Do List<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There\u2019s nothing like a bit of planning to reduce pressure. Why not create a to-do list in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=google+docs&amp;rlz=1C1JZAP_enCY764CY764&amp;oq=google+docs&amp;aqs=chrome..69i57j69i65j69i64l2.1385j0j9&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Docs<\/a> or an Excel spreadsheet to identify which family member is responsible for what on the big day? Alternatively, you could create your to-do list in an app like <a href=\"https:\/\/todoist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Todoist<\/a> and then send each person\u2019s task directly to their inbox? Very organised indeed!<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s all take a deep breath. Christmas 2018 is going to be fantastic. Let\u2019s get technology working for us so we can get through our to-do lists and be super parents \u2013 even though we all know they just don\u2019t exist!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/stil-479012-unsplash.jpg\" width=\"213\" height=\"280\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Merry Christmas<\/p>\n<p>Alex xx<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Harnessing the power of the internet and technology this Christmas may just be what you need to get over this&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":932,"featured_media":92832,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"coauthors":[5150],"class_list":["post-93320","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-family-safety"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How to Get Technology Working for You This Christmas | McAfee Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Harnessing the power of the internet and technology this Christmas may just be what you need to get over this extraordinarily stressful period.
