Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth Headset Twitter Party #SmarterWorking

Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth Headset Twitter Party #SmarterWorking


[dropcap]L[/dropcap]et’s talk mobile technology.

Everyone is so busy these days, running from one appointment to another, dealing with the kids, household errands, and just life in general.

Without our tablets, smartphones, and laptops – most of us probably couldn’t envision daily life without them. The ease of staying connected and accessible to both information and people is one of the things that make this digital age so great.

Now let’s talk about using that mobile technology to help us work smarter and be more productive.

Bluetooth headsets have evolved dramatically in the past few years. They used to be big, clunky, always needing a recharge, and hard to pair with your mobile device. That was the old days…

Plantronics has recently released their Voyager model headset and this just may be the unit that gets me back to sporting a headset.

With specs like

  • Triple-mic DSP noise cancellation
  • Stainless steel windscreens for wind noise reduction
  • 7 hours of talk time
  • Tablet and mobile phone connectivity
  • Multi-point connections, allowing you to pair two phones and answer calls from either one – (this feature I’m really impressed with)

I bring this model up specifically for the reason that TONIGHT at 9pm EST Kris Cain will moderate a panel of myself and Terrance Gaines as we discuss using mobile technology and specifically how the Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth Headset can be a great value.

You are encourage to attend – follow the hashtag #SmarterWorking

As an added bonus, for those that RSVP and attend tonights Twitter Party, Plantronics will be giving away one of these headsets at the end of the night.

Update: Come to find out, as I mentioned in a comment below- it wasn’t just 1 headset, but a brand new Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth Heaset for all that actively participated through the chat – NICE!!

Below are highlights from the chat:
