I remember being a little kid in the back of my moms old Volvo, listening to my bulky CD player singing too loud and obnoxious for me to know and my mom on her brick cell phone tapping my knee telling me to pipe down. Now I look at my cell phone and the amazing capabilities it has. Voice recognition, Internet access almost everywhere, apps to tell me how many calories are in my large chai. Ipods becoming smaller and smaller to where they fit in the palm of your hand, yet have the ability to hold thousands of songs. It is truly amazing how far technology has come, and I can not even fathom what it is going to be like within the next twenty or so coming years.
In the video they talked about these myths that are believed of in the population of my generation. We don't read as much, we don't write as much..etc etc. Like the video said, ignore the myths. I read articles every day about things that are going on in the world around me. I read stories of people in other countries, I see pictures of places I can only dream of seeing with my own eyes, I write emails and texts (none of which are ever abbreviated). My generation are huge blogger's, constantly researching and writing and responding. I think technology and how fast it has evolved is incredible, and as the video state is changing the world and ideas into new and beautiful things.
