Home Improvement and Smart Boards?

I watched the Steven & Chris show on CBC this weekend and during the last segment of the show, they were taking questions from the audience on home decor/renovations. They used a smart board to show the pictures of the persons room and placed colored circles where they thought the changes should take place and that was it. This was the first time I've seen this show so I don't know how often they use the smart board and if they use it, is that all they do with it?

Office Technology has come a long way since typewriters and cassette recorders. Most word processing applications offer templates that make our documents/presentations stand out. MS word, Corel Wordperfect makes it easier to perform this task. It corrects spelling mistakes and check grammar. The only downfall is that I can’t spell anymore. :(

I really thought I enjoyed technology and all that it has to offer, but that was until after this week. Now I’m not so sure.

It seems that this technology that we use today can and does have its ups and downs. It can get so frustrating and cause much unneeded stress. For instance, the projector we use in class I swear has a mind of its own and will work only when it feels like it. Okay, the first class I can truly say it was human error but the next two, well I can say it definitely tested my patience and I like to think that I have a lot of patience. So, I’m just wondering can this part of technology considered be the powerful “evil” tool. Either way, it is frustrating and I am sloooowly going crazy.

Welcome


Well here it is, my first blog. What to say, hum, well, we're expecting a storm this evening and tomorrow; 15 + cm of the white stuff plus all the other "nice" things associated with winter. :(
Nice eh...
Until next time....
