Kaycie Coleman Technobiography

In today's society technology is advancing at a very fast pace. It is everywhere and no matter what, you have to learn how to use basic technology. I can remember when my mom brought home our very first computer, it took place of our typewriter. I was in Elementary School at the time, and I remember playing Oregon Trial and Math Blaster on it for hours. When I was in Middle School, I spent many hours on AOL chat talking to my friends. It was the "cool" thing to do then. When I was in High School, I got my first cell phone. I thought it was the coolest thing. I had a Nextel, so I could walkie-talkie my friends who also had a Nextel. I didn't receive my own computer until my first semester at Anne Arundel Community College. It wasn't the nicest computer, but I could type of papers on it and not have to fight with my sisters to use the other computer. When I think about technology in my life now, I'm astonished at the amount of technology that I own. I have a cell phone, laptop, ipod, gps, and a Wii. For others, this might not seem like a lot, but it is for me. I would have to say that I'm more comfortable with technology today, than the past. I think that there is more technology available, therefore people have more access and ability to learn how to use technology.
