technology

We're surrounded by technology everywhere and a good part of our life depends on it so of course it's the first thing someone would want to attack. Recently you may have seen in the news the word "Ransomware" being thrown around, let me explain.

My father is the least technologically inclined person ever but I trusted him to take a picture of me and my Mother for Mother's Day.

Ryan got a pretty cool wrist phone for his birthday. Yes a phone that he wears on his wrist. If you told me even two years ago that my six year old would have a phone that he could wear as a watch, I would have said you were nuts.

Jenn and I try to have some balance when it comes to electronics out at a restaurant. Ryan is 5 and making him engage in conversation at times can be challenging. But I can't stand when we go out and the restaurant has a tablet at the table when we sit down.

I like my privacy. I don't really have anything in particular that I need to hide from people but I just feel uncomfortable with people knowing what I'm doing and where I am all of the time. I have my phone for that and even that freaks me out a bit.

Over the weekend, we were out and about a lot. We went everywhere, from a trampoline place, to shopping then to having lunch at a restaurant. Everywhere we went, it seemed like everyone was living through their phones.

In an emergency situation, is Siri the right "person" to ask for help?

What will they think of next? Well, I'll tell you.  Someone had a lightbulb go off in their head and maybe that was the incentive to come out with THIS

The future is coming at us in leaps and bounds my friends, the things I am about to show you available in the Tesla Model S P85D will one day be much more commonplace and much much cheaper. This car can park itself at the store, park and unpark itself in the garage (including opening and closing the garage door itself) , and even drive itself on the highway.

There are always rumors abounding with this company.  Oddly enough, doesn't it seem to follow that a lot of them come true?  This is slightly bizarre.

There is something so charming about this video, perhaps because the whole time I watched it I thought "Oh my God , this could totally be my Father in Law!"  It got me thinking it could anyone's Dad simply having a great time with technology even though he has no idea how to operate it correctly, maybe even yours.

Just when you thought that technology has solved all of the obstacles of the self driving car, a new problem arises.  I found this particularly funny, but I guess I have a sick sense of humor
