Blog Post About Anything Technology Related

Technological awareness is a full-time job. You could spend hours on the internet learning about this "stuff". Hence, the need for magazines like Wired among others.

I choose not to devote much time to staying current on technological issues. I try to keep abreast with newspaper articles and skimming the Sunday newspaper ads to see what is new. I don't have a digital camera. I barely know how to use my cell phone. I have never taken a picture with my cell phone, even though it has the capability. My computer is seven years old.

Admittedly, I am one of those pathetic parents that asks their kid how to do something on the computer when I get stuck. Although, now that my daughter is away at school, I have to fend for myself a bit more now.

Fd Toys -- Mashups Post

OK. Call me old-fashioned, but I just don't get the thrill of doing this on the computer. It is just playing ith techno-toys/software/mashups. I already feel like I don't have enough time in my life to play as it is. I would rather mess with my hands-on crafts and sew than do this. I suppose it is all a preference. I don't see how it makes my life easier to organize, communicate or craft. Although, it is cool to learn about this -- learning is Always good -- so far, it is just not for me.

This is what photography is all about -- capturing a serendipituous moment. The surrealist bicycle takes an everyday urban scene and takes delight in its skeletal remains. How clever this is!
