Livestrong June 15, 2009

Technology is an amazing thing. It can not only entertain us, help us with communication, and teach us but it also saves lives. Lance Armstrong created the Livesrtong company to help others with their diet, fitness and overall health. He also raises money for cancer.

In a way technology is just like Lance Armstrong. Technology changes the lives of people everyday. Exercise equipment such as treadmills keep us healthy.  Cell phones and television help us communicate by making us aware of what is going on in the world around us. Imagine life without television or radios. If there was a hurricane coming many people would not find out until it is too late. The defibrillator brings thousands of people back to life every day. These are just a few examples of how technology saves lives.

I think that the more time people spend on improving technology the more lives will be saved. I will be graduating this year and my goal is to stay up to date with all the latest technology. It is important to me because the impact it has on our life is tremendous. I cannot wait to see what new technology we have in store for us in the future. I look up to Lance and all the people who spent so much time and effort to study and create new technology.

How has technology saved your life?

USB Keylogger June 1, 2009

This next new piece of technology I want to share with you it a spy gadget. It’s called the USB keylogger. This can be used to record all the keystokes that are made on a computer’s keyboard. There is no program or installation required. All you have to do is plug it into the computer’s USB port. It looks just like a normal USB extension. It holds 128 kb of keystokes which should last about 15 days of normal keystoke use.

Although I do not really see a use for this spy gadget. I thought it was very interseting. This just goes to show you that technology can do almost anything we want it to do.

Virtual Laser Keyboard May 8, 2009

Posted by waterhousea in : Technology , 4 comments

This is the only keyboard that operates in total darkness! I have personally used one of these keyboards and they are truly incredible. I was amazed the first time I used one. It was very accurate and it never missed a keystroke! It works just a well as a normal keyboard.

It uses laser technology to project the outline of a keyboard onto any flat surface. You just tap the table or desk where the letters are projected and it will type just like a normal keyboard. It is wireless and uses a small card that is inserted into the USB on your computer. The projector is about 3.5 inches tall and 1.5 inches wide.

They are sold for around $150 on the Internet. Another cool thing about this gadget is that it can be hooked up to the bluetooth on your cell phone and it can be used for typing a text message!

My First Blog Post May 6, 2009

I am going to college for computer technology. I am very interested in all sorts of technology that’s why I decided to make a blog all about the newest up to date technology.

 

The fist gadget I want to share with you is the 52 Inch Virtual Reality Wide Screen Personal Movie Theater. Imagine being able to watch a movie on the big screen from the comfort of practically anywhere! All you need to connect your 52 inch television is a video iPod, a portable DVD player or a personal video game system.

 

It uses dual stereo headphones and two high resolution LCD’s that promise an extremely high resolution. The 28 degree field of view allows you to get the full picture in both regular and wide screen editions, plus the 24-bit true color produces the purest, brightest color quality you’ve seen.
