Technology







For the past hour or more, Linsey and I -- as we browse (or surf for you kids out there) the World Wide Interweb -- have connected with the Hermans of Kentucky via our iChat programs, which include cameras that allow us to look at each other and talk.

Right now, Lucas and Spencer are in deep concentration playing Sonic (the hedgehog), while Adam reads, Cassandra comforts Eli, who is sick, and Maisy does something -- something we are not sure of.

Earlier tonight, we watched them eat a delicious looking dinner of chicken stir fry. We also saw Spencer and Lucas be forced to clean up the kitchen afterward, bringing back strange memories of our own childhoods, when dinner clean up was a much-dreaded activity.

Anyway ... what we are trying to say is that technology is nice. It makes being hundreds of miles from family a little easier. And, in other words, everyone should get an iMac, so we can communicate, not just in the written but through video chats: it is like reality television, but with people you love instead of strangers.

I agree on the "Getting I Mac" thing. I hope to get an Apple with a fancy I-Chat camera this year. By the way: Notice that you've gone beyond 1,000 hits? Jason

I again agree with the iMac computer, but, such a computer doesn't help with this internet service. We need out of this valley. :)
