Good, Better, Best...

Technology is a beautiful thing when you know what you're doing, lol!  I have had the good fortune to work in a high school that allows me to take computer courses which enables me to learn how to use a computer.  Sadly, I tend to forget it as soon as the term is over, sigh.  Having said that, I am so grateful to live in an age where the information highway is at our fingertips.  There is so much out there that I don't know,but the opportunity is there to learn.  For now, my interests lies within a very small circle.  Call me selfish or old or just content, but I have no desire to pursue anything more than what amuses me.  I leave all else for the young minds.  What I have discovered about this technology is that it feeds my passions well.  There have been a few sites that have kept me glued to this piece of equipment far more than I should.  In fact I find the need to reward myself with 10-30 minutes of computer time depending on what household chores I complete, lol!  It's the only way I can keep myself from getting swallowed up on all the wonderful sites out there.  Due to this super highway of information, my simple pleasures are fed.   I am amazed at how creative people can be.   Mason Cooley once said, "Art begins in imitation and ends in innovation.

With the internet, the possibilities are endless.  It can be a curse to those who misuse it, a worry to parents who are ignorant of it and a weapon for those who abuse it.  Like anything with power, it should always be handled with care. Having said that, there is so much good that comes from technology.  It is up to each of us to find what is good, better, best about it.
