Why is Technology Bad For You?

Technology may seem like heaven, but really, it isn't all it seems to be. Technology distracts us from the test if the world, and makes us depend on it for almost everything. What if all the technology in the world went out? We wouldn't know what to do. That is why we should use less technology and more dependent things.

   Many people have an Instagram, and many people have a Facebook. But is Instagram's new web page starting to look a little too much like Facebook's? Many people think so.The only differnce is the tiny ifferent looks of the two, and how you can't play games or text your friends. Some people think this is going too far, and some really don't care. In my opinion, I  find the new instagram layout very confusing and looking too much like the Facebook one.

Tech Article 11/16/12

Everyone knows about the keyboard cat video on YouTube. Well now there's a Keyboard Cat toy! This toy was created to look exactly like the cat in the video. The only difference is that the toy is smaller. In my opinion, this is a really cool but funny invention. Being a fan of the video, I love this idea, but others may have a different opinion.

Have you ever heard of a bed that makes itself? Well, there is a new invention that fixes that for you. It's a bed that automatically makes the bed after you get up in the morning. But if you have to get up at night, that could be a problem. But this bed also has a manual setting, so that you can have it made when you want. In my opinion, this is a wonderful idea, and people everywhere should buy it.

Jailbreaking

    There have been many articles about Jailbreaking devices. But is it really worth it? Some people say yes some say no. Jailbreaking can let you unlock things you couldn't do before! Like changing the theme and setup of an iPhone. But this can also void your warrinty! This is dangerous, but in my opinion, I think it's worth it.

Nikon Camera: Learning to Share Photos like a smartphone!

Nikon has released a camera that can share your photos like a smartphone! When you take a picture, you can then chose to share it to Facebook, twitter, Instagram, google +, etc. I personally think this is a great idea because its easier to share photos straight from the camera. Especially because the camera can focus on the Image better than a smartphone .

Now, Apple's iPhone 3GS has been dropped and is no longer available, the iPhone 4 is now free, and the iPhone 4S is only $99.

Bored

   I am at home and I'm really bored, so I thought I should post something. Right now I'm watching videos of One Direction and Eminem. While listening to music, I'm on a website where I'm looking for the lyrics to the one One Direction song. That got boring so now I am looking for cases for my phone. The one I really liked is very pretty. Well this is boring me, so bye!

My Weekend

This weekend was pretty boring. I just sat in my room, and played games on my phone. The only fun part about my weekend was cheering on Sunday. Even though we lost it was fun to hang out with my friends before and after the games, and fun to cheer for the football team. Over the weekend, I also sat in the living room watching Revolution, Impractical Jokers, and football, with my dad, mom, brother, dog, and cat. Well, that's pretty much it, so bye!

Some of these tricks include Google doing a barrel roll, where the screen rotates in a full circle, Google Gravity, where the whole screen falls to the bottom, and the Find Chuck Norris trick where you search for Chuck Norris, but  it says that he finds you. These tricks are fun and simple to use, and entertain kids and adults all over the web. That concludes, that Google, is not all that it seems.
