I love computers, especially my laptop that I can use in the living room while sitting in my comfy chair typing blogs. I love the Internet, especially now that it is high speed. I remember sitting, waiting for a dial-up page to load. I love all the cool things on the Internet. I can find anything I need on google; a map, reference information, or a special item I am shopping for. I love shopping on the Internet, browsing one of my favorite forums, finding friends on Facebook, and reading other people's blogs. I love email, it is so quick and easy to keep in touch with friends and family.
I love my digital camera, such immediate gratification in seeing that you capture (or not) that perfect little smile. I am having so much fun editing my photos in Picasa3. Then I can share them with friends and family, and put them on my blog.
I love our GPS. We didn't run out of gas in the middle of Louisiana, (or was it Alabama) because the GPS will find the closest gas station. I love that I don't have to print out maps. I feel so free setting out on our journey with just a destination, and the GPS telling us where to go. I love that it will find the closest Chipotle to my location.
I love DVD's and that we can pick one out, and have it in our mailbox in a couple of days. I love our new 46" Sony Bravida HDTV. I can remember when a 19" TV was big, heck I remember when we used to have to get out of the chair to change the channel. I am thankful for satellite tv that we can get hundreds of channels, and even watch the broadcast of conference on BYU TV.
Technology has changed so much in my lifetime. It is so awesome! I am sure in 10 years, we will read this and laugh when our children ask why we used to get DVD's in the mail.
