People who know me think that I like technology for technology's sake. This couldn't be further
from the truth. I can be a bit of a gizmo guy but I really get cranked when technology really benefits us. For example, video chat using iChat on the Mac. This is by far the easiest and best quality video chat system around. It's ease of use is unparalleled. As a family we use it to keep in touch with my parents who are 800 kms away. India chats with them weekly and she will grow up thinking this is normal. This is where technology really shows its power - India hadn't seen her Grandparents for over 7 months (physically) but when they walked in the door last week she didn't skip a beat. It was like they were never a part. No playing strange...just straight into their arms. That's powerful.
