A Sky Watch with a Google Street View

Have you ever followed this car?

It's the Google Street View car!

First I followed it on my way home from work.

Then, a day later, my son in law followed it as it 'rounded the ramp near our shopping mall.

We were soooo excited to see it.

There was a threat of rain when I was behind it and the camera had a raincoat on...

Now you know how Google gets those street view maps.

What a car!

What a job!

What a world!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Keep looking forward . . .

you never know what you'll see!

 

Thank you Sky Watch Team!

a penny for your thoughts

This little penny-size cutie, can hold 2 Gig of storage!

Recently,
one of my students produced a PowerPoint presentation for the class.
She had it saved to this little penguin flash-drive.

I just marveled at how much it could store in it's tiny little head,
so I quickly took a picture of it with my cellphone.
Then I looked it up on Amazon.com
Look what I found!
More cuties!

This was the computer room at the University at Albany back in the '70's.

My husband, Chris, used to go to computer lab in there.

I remember he used punch cards for his computer programs.

It could address a little more than 2 Gig of storage.

-the same storage as the penny-size flash drive-

This is my son, Jason's new cell phone.
His sunglasses are his background.
J's a funny guy.

It can store up to 32GB of optional memory!
Yesterday, when he chose his new phone, the salesperson at Verizon Wireless
was trying to talk him into the internet service.

She said, "Oh, it's so cheap, only $1 a day,

Everyone can afford an extra dollar a day."

To which Jason replied...
Well, since I must sign a two year contract,
at the end of the two years...that would be an extra.....

$730.

"Oh," she said.
{Sales pitch over.}

What times we are living in!

Technology is growing exponentially.

Have you seen the "Did You Know?" presentations?

{produced by Karl Fisch and Scott McLeod}

They are amazing.

I saw the 2.0 version a few years ago, now there is a 4.0 version.

 

So much changes in just a couple of years!

So much talk everywhere, Facebook, Twitter, Blogs...

Do you Tweet yet?

I only tweet to my little birds in the backyard!

I do love blogging though :D

especially because of

Y O U !

 

 

I think I'll make myself a cup o' tea now

and remember

that God doesn't change!

His Love and Spirit are

Omnipresent

Omnipotent

Omniscient

"Every good and perfect gift is from above,

coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,

who does not change like shifting shadows."

James 1:17
