#7 Blog about technology

I am supposed to think about technology today and I realize that there is so much I still have to learn and how much more the children know than I do. My daughter rang me to tell me about my 6 year old granddaughter who put a password on her computer so that when she went to use it she could not get in until my granddaughter came home from school.

I think that this is amazing because even though I can put a password on my computer if I wanted to it would take me a while to remember how to do it and then I would be using trial and error until I found the right place to add a password. This is mainly because it is not something I need to do very often.

The important thing about technology today is you can always learn something new but you have to keep using it and updating your knowledge because unlike riding a bike, technology is something that is constantly changing and you can forget how to do even the simple things like adding a password.

#6 Mashups

I decided to make a calender page after a lot of thought because November is a big birthday month with my granddaughter and future daughter in law on the same day and my daughter all in the same week. I liked the teddy bear with his present and though he is out of focus I think he looks cute

On a recent trip to Sydney we decided to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge and we made it. It was a challenge both physically and mentally but it was worth it.
