Hi!!!
I have to say that i am not the best at computers or working with new technologies and I'm sure it has shown, but i am continually working on learning the new and up coming inventions. I first learned that their are so many new technologies that come out every other week and that you will never have the best and newest technology because their is always going to be something coming out that is going to be better, nicer and more efficient for the everyday person. What i found extremely frustrating is Dreamweaver. Probably one of the things that i dreaded the most was working with this technology. I'm very happy that i got the chance to work with something that i have never done before, but i seriously was not feeling this invention of technology. Hopefully when i am introduced to this again i will have some kind of knowledge on how create a somewhat good looking web page that people can enjoy. I enjoy learning new things and how to work them, but i feel like it takes me just a little longer to become familiar with different technologies, though i also think that if it is more complicated then something else it might take me a little longer. I just need more time to let myself become more knowledgeable on how to navigate my way through programs or projects. I love the new IPad. Though it may seem bias i really like working with them. They are easy to understand and work with and i am a huge magazine and newspaper reader and you can find the most current ones in just seconds to read. I have also used one while flying and i thought it pretty much saved my life from boredom and thinking about dieing because the turbulence was so horrible i thought it was the end for me. I hope that i will never have to use Dreamweaver again just because i didn't have enough time to understand it and it seemed so confusing for me, but if i had the chance to learn it more extensively i think i would learn to love it. Having a web page would be great and maybe my mom could sell her jam that she makes every year. Three take-a-ways that i think will be great for myself to remember is that technology is always changing with time so i will never have the best and most up to date technology. Next would be blogging. I have never blogged in my life and i really enjoy it. I have a few friends who blog on their Facebook and i have always thought about doing it, but never knew what i would talk about and now maybe i will give it a chance. Last, but I'm sure not least is that i actually learned what kind of learner i am when it comes to learning new navigation skills and technologies, such as Dreamweaver. It takes me more time then usual to get familiarized with the new tool so maybe i could start learning a couple weeks in advance to the class.

Technology that has impacted my life!
Hi!!
All technology is evolving every single day and and rapidly changing to fit the lives of many different types of people with different job types and life styles. Something to fit the ordinary everyday person who all the stresses in the world that come along with being human. All technology has enhanced my life in some way and for the most part in a good way. I would have to say that Skype has really taken the cake in this race. It helps me stay connected with the people that i love. One of the main reasons why i have chosen this technology to be the greatest impact on my life is because it was such a life saver when my brother was over in Iraq and on his base in Texas. It gave my family and i a sense of calmness when we saw him and knew that he was ok. It gave a chance to talk with him about things that were going on that he wanted to talk about or things that we needed to send him that he and his platoon could use. It was just really nice to be able to see his face and feel like he was physically here with us and im sure that he felt like he was closer too by seeing us on the computer. Hopefully it gave him comfort to know that we love him and pray for him and his men everyday and night and wait for the day that they come home safe. I also use Skype to talk to my friends in other states going to college or living in another destination. There are only a few girls and guys that i have kept in touch with since i graduated high school. It's nice to be able to talk to them and see them in their destination. I sometimes get jelaous because i have a friends who lives in LA and she skypes with me while she is on the beach. While it is freezing and rainy here, she was sitting on the beautiful beach at 80 degrees watching the waves and surfers come in. I then relized that one day i hope that is me. The nice thing about Skype is that it can be done from anywhere and even though my sister doesn't live out of state i can still skype with her even if she was in the next room. Skype has affected my life in many different ways and it has all been for the better and I am so happy that this technology was invented before my brother enlisted with the Army because it made our lives just a little bit easier and hopefully his too to deal with the seperation for the long periods of time.
