Work from home and avoid the gridlock?

Could the greater use of teleworking offer a solution to Dublin's growing traffic gridlock? Next Tuesday's TechTV programme will examine how simple tools, including a home computer, a modem and a telephone, can allow people to work from home and reside outside highly populated areas. The programme, broadcast on Network 2, will also look at banking over the Internet which is still only a niche market in Ireland but is projected to grow significantly over the next year.

The programme will also feature flight simulators and presenter, John Collins, will take IBM's wearable PC for a test run.
