Tricia Luberto Technobiography

For as long as I can remember, I have always been exposed to technology throughout my life. And when I think back now, it is interesting to notice how technology has evolved so much over the course of my life. When I was younger, I always watched TV, movies on VHS tapes, listened to music on my boom box and on cassette tapes etc. While technology was definitely accessible in the 90's, it was nothing like how it is now.
I remember when I was younger, no one had cell phones; everyone only used house lines. When my dad finally got a cell phone, it was just as big as a house phone. (the "Zach Morris" cell phone). It's crazy to think how back then no one had cell phones, and today I could hardly picture my life without my cell phone. I have my cell phone on me at all times, and if I ever forget it, I feel so disconnected from the world.
Also, I remember when I was younger, we had only 1 desktop computer in our whole house for everyone to share. My sisters and I had to take turns going on the computer to play games and go on AOL. Today, every person in my family has their own laptop computer, plus the few desktop computers we still have in our house. In addition, we all have our own digital cameras and ipods.Technology has definitely changed alot from the time I was born until now, and it is interesting to reflect back and notice how much it has really changed our world today.
