July 8, 2014 I love these videos where kids react to technology. They take an old piece of technology or an old video and let kids play or watch it, and then they get their reactions. This time the kids are given a Game Boy.
June 3, 2014 NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman docked with the International Space Station on Thursday, he is a Flight Engineer on board the International Space Station for Expedition 41. Thank goodness for technology, mainly Twitter, because he has been tweet some awesome pictures from space.
May 28, 2014 This is great news for migraine sufferers. The FDA has just approved a device that looks like a Space Tiara to help prevent migraines. The device is called Cefaly. It is said to relieve and prevent migraines. It has been used in Canada and now with FDA approval it will be available in the U.S.
May 19, 2014 WikiBear is a new bear that can answer all sorts of questions. I would call this the Teddy Ruxpin of this generation. It is fully interactive and can have conversations with kids. Where Teddy Ruxpin would work with cassettes, Wikibear works off of an app connected by Bluetooth and the internet. It's like a teddy bear/Siri mix.
The visitor center at Johnson Space Center is getting one heck of a new exhibit. Say hello to the Space Shuttle Transporter 747, and eventually the Space Shuttle mock-up Independence.
This week, the big theme in our house has been focused on technology. Specifically, how it should *not* be used. My children have iPod's and/or tablet devices. There are rules. They can't download apps (or anything else) without asking. They can't connect via e-mail, text, Facetime, or anything else, without asking. They can't set up their own accounts for anything. They can't purchase anything. They can't use these devices after "lights out." They can't take these devices to school. And, they've all been warned we will routinely check their devices, their browsing history, their e-mail, and whatever else we see fit, without notice.
We all knew it was too good to be true, but we wanted to believe!
It's hard to think what are lives were like before smart phones.
Everywhere you look you see people checking their emails, talking to their friends or playing games on their phones.
I began my radio journey in 1981 and it's amazing how technology has changed over the past 33 years.
As I look through my photo albums and files, it's funny that I can only find one picture of me in a control room.
Recently I have noticed that the battery on my Samsung Galaxy phone has been draining quicker than normal.
This can be pretty frustrating. You charge the battery all night and then within a couple of hours after it's unplugged the battery is drained of power.
Facebook turned 10 years old on Tuesday, which the people from Facebook made a 1 minute video of your posts since joining the "friend network". Now as for me, I'm a 90's kid growing up in a decade people actually enjoyed. I wonder how Facebook would have looked on those 'old school' computers.
