My first memories of technology are probably the same as the ones that many have. Watching TV, VHS Tapes, and those fun electronic toys that our parents all hate! You know that ones that make noise, have flashing lights, that all kids love to play with. Listening to music on the stereo in the house, and listening to music in the car Oh and Nintendo, my favorite game of all time when I was little was duck hunt. I sucked at it (and I still do), but it was so fun to play!
In elementary school I remember when my school got computers. They were Mac's and they were the coolest things ever!!! Of course we the "little" kids did not get to use them except during indoor recess we sometimes were allowed to go play games...Oregon Trail anyone? ;) Then we got a computer at home, and my brother and I got a Toy Story game. That's all we cared about back then was playing games.
As I have gotten older I have learned a lot more about technology and learned to appreciate it (the good and the bad). I can't be without my laptop, my iPod, my cell phone, my DVD player, my car, and so many other things. In fact right now as I type this blog I am watching a movie on Comcast OnDemand, having a text message conversation with my mother (of all people), and of course I'm surfing the net using my tabbed Firefox browser. My house has been taken over by technology. There are 5 adults in my house...2 XBOX 360's, 1 Wii, 6 iPods, 3 laptop computers, 1 desktop computer, 4 cell phones, 2 HD Tv's, and a whole list of other things.
Next on my list of techie things to get, the iPhone. I have decied that I need to have it.
