I haven’t told anyone yet, but I have a blog. Little old me. I’m probably the least technologically savvy person I know. I never did have an interest in technology. I still can’t get over the fact that someone came up with the idea to create the television, camera or telephone, never mind the computer. I have no idea where I was while the other children were playing with their Atari’s in the seventies, or their Nintendo’s in the eighties. I think that was what set me back.  I have been unable to learn, or retain any of the normal things the average computer user finds common knowledge. I don’t understand much of the lingo or terminology. I don’t chat, use MSN, have a web cam, etc. I don’t have an Ipod, MP3 player, Blackberry, or even a cellphone. I don’t know how to text message someone or set the DVD player. My kids just don’t get it. My Husband the computer geek can’t fathom it either and gets extremely frustrated at my frequent pleas for help, or at my disgust when the laptop loses it’s connection. I do have Facebook; and I’ve been on a couple of message boards. I can find just about anything anyone wants to know with Yahoo search. I know how to find directions and I love browsing through local real estate sites like the MLS, but the idea of me having a blog is pretty inconceivable. Thirty years ago we still had record players and rotary telephones. I can’t begin to imagine what the next 30 years will bring.
