Technology and Me

If you read my posts or if you noticed my Tagline for this blog you will know I am a geek. Yes as hard as it may seem to admit I am a geek and I like my technology toys. I used to try and get the current technology as soon as something new would come out. Over the years I grew to learn to be somewhat patient and try and get my toys at the appropriate time. I discovered that no matter when I got a new piece of electronics there would be something better and faster released soon after I got my new toy. It took me sometime to accept that this would always happen and at some point I would have to make the plunge and buy my new toy. Still no one says I have to like it when I do get a new toy and the manufacturers decide to release a better faster model right after I have opened the box.

Embracing Technology

Lately and I do mean over the past year or so my television habits have changed quite a bit due to my work schedule and amount of travel I do. Except for hockey I tend not to watch too much in the way of “live” television. Thanks to the internet and the progress of streaming technology I am able to download or stream almost all the shows I would have watched during their original broadcast times. I must admit I do like to watch shows on my schedule and yes I could get a PVR but I do not see the need at this point as everything I like to watch is easily accessible.

As my tagline from my title says I am a Geek and do like technology, it has changed my viewing habits and allows me to watch what I want when I want. Isn’t Technology Grand!
