Another day, another...


...day.


I typically am ambivalent towards technology. It provides tools that perform a service or allow one to complete a task (or something like that). However, recently I've grown to appreciate the wonders that are computers, the interweb and the applications people create to make the world a very small place indeed.

I can sit at my desk and chat in real time with someone half way around the world. I can take a picture and within moments have it posted to a forum where oodles of people can see it and comment. It really is quite amazing if you think about it.

That's all I've got for now. Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to leave a note to let me know you've wandered 'round.

I love it(technology)except when it goes wrong or sends me silly messages and then I hate it.
Friends on the other side of the world though - I always love them :)

The interweb is nifty isn't it...I didn't realise how much I used it until our internet went down for a few days. I've met so many awesome people on the web... :)

PS - Happy birthday...it's a but late, but I hope it was a good one.
