Each day has been an adventure with me having heaps of fun on flickr. I have found an extraordinary amount of photo's and even some from a group I attended just late last week. We had a fantastic time in Ballarat discovering how current technology and information sharing can enhance the knowledge database of all, instead of just a few. We saw from birth ( a Municipal Christening Cradle) to death (A tour of the Old Ballaarat Cemetery). It was while reading one of my colleagues blogs that madde me think about what technology has done for me in the past years. I have family living overseas and without the advancement in technology I do not know if we would communicate as much. Yes I can call them on the telephone, but it is not the same as being able to see them (in person, on the other side of the world) and hear them and have them see us. My son and I love being able to webcam with my brother and his family. The other thing I was thinking about was faxes (not sure why) and the way the paper used to be in a roll. Technology has wonderful applications, it is just learning how to use them.
