Changes in Technology and Tech News Links of Interest

I don't know about you, but I think all of the changes in technology is fascinating. Think about it, in the early 90's, we were carrying around big bags with cell phones in them. My wife had one I bought her in the event of an accident on her way back forth from school (the trip was 100 miles one way).

Now, we have small phones that organize our lives, give us access to the web and email, social media, gps, and still yet probably a lot more than any of us realize.

And do you remember computers in the 80's? My dad had a Tandy machine where we played dot games and thought they were the coolest thing ever made, next to Atari of course.

Now, some newer laptops have more power than desktops and can do amazing things, include play state of the art games. Of course, I still don't think they are as good as Xbox 360 or PS3, but in reality they are also just computers.

In the last five years, technology has revolutionized communication and entertainment. Who knows, the days of the Star Trek hologram may be a lot nearer than any of us can imagine.

SIDEBIT: I hope to post a picture or two of a few websites that are currently being designed.

Here is some tech news links for today:
