I just started following David Pogues's blog. He is one of the technology authors from the New York Times. His posts will help keep me abreast of the current trends and products regarding technology. I enjoy his blog because of his witty writing style and clarity. I hope by reading his blog to gain the big picture of what is going on in the technology world. While not all of the information on his blog will pertain to the classroom, some of the products, like the i-pad and Kindle will be useful and important to know once they are in the schools.
Today's post was really interesting. It concerns the future of technology in regards to what he calls "the new area of internet data limits". Can you imagine having your computer usage caped? This will have huge implications on school systems as well, especially at the university level. It will be interesting to see how these changes will effect the elementary and high schools just as they are beginning to increase technology usage.
I just subscribed to his blog as well. I was intrigued by the blog on increasing my iPhone's battery life. I changed a lot of things in my settings and noticed a huge change!
