The Remote Control

Has anyone ever used a remote control to start your car up? Or has anyone ever used a remote control to control their alarm setting for their house? Well it was back in the late 1800s when the remote control device was invented.It operated a moving vehicle. Today we Americans have become very lazy. Theres controllers for everything. You name it theres a remote for it. So how would life be without a remote controller to turn ur televesion on or off? In my opinion people would be more active.Its pretty funny but its true. I could not imagine outr world without thise peice of technology.

Emailing

I remember when i was younger my parents used to send and receive letters written from my family as far as Guatemala. At the time I never really figured that sending these letters actually took quite a while. I also noticed that the letters were very long.Now i look back and I'm like, "these letters were long because they took long to get to their destination"Everyone now knows that the quickest way to send mail is by using email. These messages are sent almost instantly and can be viewed all across the world. This innovating way of communication has been used buy almost everyone. Anyone with a computer or a cell phone can send emails. I'm always sending emails to my family that live in other countries.

Mapping Gone Technical

So if anyone hasn't been up to date with technology here is something that has changed along the years. The use of maps and directions have been improved in ways that a child can get from new york to new jersey in just a few clcks. Has anyone ever tried to travel to another state just following directions from paper or from what someone has told you?Its not an easy thing to do. GPS has been so revolutional that its been integrated in phones, computers, and other devices. With this new technology more people are able to travel to places theyve never been to before. I have been able to go to Chicago, Rhode Island, New York, and Maryland with the use of GPS. Before I would dread to leave to another state and now its just a matter of deciding where to go.

So what types of technology do you think is the most important?

I came up with this question when I started to think about the computer. The first thing I asked myself was, "How big were these room sized computers that everyone talks about?" And so I was curious and found a picture.The computer was huugeeeee back then. I couldnt have imagined what people had to go through to do a specific operation on it. Well back to the question, I believe computers are the most important. You can do anything on a computer.Theres really nothing a computer cant do. What do you guys think?
