Are you afraid of the technology? Me Too ...

There comes a time in every persons life when they must decide the important issue of our time ... will I get on the train of new technologies or will I be left at the station? The first argument against the technology have always been the best of his own lack of performance. The computers were huge, but they have a computational power of the average of nine years, could easily make your room the size of the processor. Moore's Law has changed all that.

In 1965, Gordon Moore published a paper in which he has noticed an incredible evolution of computing power, it has doubled every two years. What other opinions before Moore? Perhaps, but the law is named after him because he published first ... no luck with others. The trend began in 1958 when the integrated circuit was created and has continued to this day. I spoke with some who still believe that Moore was a bad job ... but we must admit the story is really on the side and the same data. Do not believe me? Check out this graph showing the point until 2008.

What does all this mean for technology? It means roughly every two years or more are not only computers and technological devices faster but they are also less expensive. Two decades ago, people are not huge, and buy more expensive iPods to carry in their backpacks. It simply was not the size or price comparability in the provision of something like an iPod plausible for the free market. Although Moore's Law marches on and our new technology. During each series of new mobile phones, mp3 players, media devices, and computers are becoming smaller, faster and more complex. Why all these things are so difficult to use?

The answer is simple: as computer chips faster and more powerful software can run small applications on these new technological systems. In other words, there are more and more applications can now be mainly due to the computing power available for modern computers. In truth, our CPU speed has always been miles ahead of the software's capabilities. There is not a piece of software that used the full potential of its processor.

One last thing to add to this image of chaos, culture. The technology has exceeded our culture as a whole. There is no part of our culture that is not affected by new technology, computers, or Moore's Law. Everything that you are using a circuit and transistors. The World Wide Web has made the culture to develop even faster than humanity has instant access to the other by "the great computer." I can see immediately what my brother in New York has just started to copy and start a chain reaction that could affect millions when it is done.

The culture is extremely difficult to follow because it changes so fast and a lot of modes in a single day and are forgotten tomorrow. The case in point to recall the Numa Numa video? Probably not, it was a random internet phenomena that faded within a fortnight to never be heard again ... but at the time this video has received nearly 30 million views! 30 million!

Thus, in the middle of a minefield as new technologies are constantly evolving its software to be constantly re-learn and yet, its constant evolution due to the size and speed device, it is fickle and faddish swirling how culture can not lose your head? As far as I luv (talk ok ... I know that was a low blow) technology on most days I wake up hoping that things remain the same, while other days I spend a lot time trying to maintain that I feel like I "m on the whirly wheel of death and it will never stop!

In conclusion, I would like to respond to two questions. First, is it useful? Is it really useful to keep in pace with technological developments and maintain the improvement over time? Secondly, how is it possible to stay and master new technologies to keep the head (or your lunch)?

Let me start by saying a resounding YES! It's worth! When you learn to use a well established technology properly, it will not only change your life, but it will be better and more exciting in ways you never thought possible. The case, my grandmother recently discovered Facebook. She loves her grandchildren, but we are busy people (and hate the phone ... at least, my brother and me) so how can she stay in touch and stay with us? Facebook!

It has instant access to almost everything that happens in our lives and instant communication lines, which are not in the safe and easy way to return the communication of his relatives, everyone wins. While it took time for her to learn, but it is firmly in the benefits of large Internet-savvy. When you take the time to learn how to use new technology well established, it will pay you back with the proliferation of price. The time needed to learn quickly find a good use of its functions.

Thus, the answer is long, my second question. Before I answer, it is imperative that you agree to the first part. If you are not committed for the benefit of the technology, it is not necessary to read that part. So how can we stay afloat in the rising tide of new technology? It's simple ... remain behind. Admittedly, I said stay behind him. Do not be on the cutting edge and not be the total extinction. Right in the middle is a nice safe place to work and technology that will make your life better, but not give you headaches.

For example, let me an error of mine. When the trend of flat panel displays has begun and I bought a brand new one (big mistake), I was headed for a year. Do you know what happened next? Large has become the new standard, and the screen area standard was exceeded for ever! If only I had waited a year, I collected two awards. One, I had the real standard for monitors to my new technology last much longer and two I could have benefited from a sharp drop in prices!

I hope you get the point I do. Keep up with the latest trends in technology (you can do here StreamingGeek.com), but are not on the trigger "until the trend is established and prices fall. This will give you a lower price and useful advice for people who have used this technology for a period of two years before you. They pay the price in time and money so you do not have to! Hope this helps tame the new technology of the beast for you.
