Colby Gehrig- Technobiography

As far back as I can remember, I have always been exposed to technology. In elementary school, we always had access to to computers. I also always had a computer at home. We would have various assignments to do on the computer and there were also several games on the computer that my parents would buy that were considered to be educational games.

As time went on, the graphics on computer games were better and people eventually moved away from playing computer games to playing playstations and nintendos. Growing up, we always had the latest nintendo games and gameboys. We were very fortunate to be able to have all these new technologies.

Then when high school and college rolled around there were a million new kinds of technologies. Items such as digital cameras, ipods, laptops and videos games were the new in thing. It's hard to keep up with at times. I found that as soon as i purchased "the newest ipod" or the brand new mac, the company was getting ready to come out with a new updated version of it. But i guess that's all part of it's appeal. I find it fascinating that people are constantly finding ways to make computers faster and to make graphics on games appear to be real.

Overall, I think I have been very exposed to technology throughout my life and feel that i can use most technology that is available. However, I know there is a lot that I do not know about technology and hope to learn about.
