         As I look at technologies that I have learned the last few years there is one that jumps out at me. It is Uber. It is something after using is absolutely amazing. For those that don't know Uber is a technology that allows people to call for a ride and an Uber driver shows up driving their personal car. I am going to talk about just a few ways I use Uber and the benefits of Uber.          The first way I use Uber is basically just like a taxi. When I have been on vacation or travel for work I have used Uber to get from place to place. It is just as easy as a Taxi cause most places like Las Vegas has incorporated Uber into the travel department. The other way that I have used Uber is to travel to Football games. I love Boise State Football and go to plenty of there games. I have also used Uber when attending a Denver Broncos Game. Just before the games, I get an Uber and it can drive me right up to the stadium and I don'...

The first thing I would like to touch on is the new love for two technologies this week. In class, I was introduced to Screencasting. I absolutely love it! This is something that I enjoyed doing so much. If someone hasn't had the opportunity to play around with it, please do. It is easy to do, its free, and it helps get a message across so much easier sometimes. The second technology that I fell in love this week comes from watching television. I like to watch the TV show Shark Tank and the episode I watched recently had a technology on it that I just had to begin to research. The technology on the show was called ChangEd. It helps a student pay down student loan debt.  I have found this technology in a couple other spaces like saving money or investments. My Love for the two technologies had put them together. I made a screencasting on the ChangEd Technology. Please take a few minutes and watch my screencasting. As you learn about the technology I challenge you to find a ...

I have been trying to find new technologies in everyday life that not only are new to me but interest me as well. Being lucky enough to travel during school time I wanted to try and find some technology that was of interest to me. Traveling out of the country to Mexico I wasn’t sure what I would come across. Staying at a nicer resort I was afraid that I wouldn’t find anything out of the norm. This concern was address almost right away. The resort that I was staying at required me to wear a wristband in order to eat at the all-inclusive restaurants. The new technology was within the wristband. In the wristband was also the room key. The wristband had technology that I would put it next to the door, like a proximity reader, to my room and it would unlock it. This is something that I have never seen before. As I think about different room keys I can remember back to a child when you would check into a hotel room you would get an actual metal key with a key ring attached usually with ...
