Buying a Mac

I helped a client buy an iMac on Wednesday at the Mac store on Santa Fe and Coal Mine and it was a great experience. I like the fact that they did not try and up-sell my client and helped her find the computer that best meet her needs. I am still a PC guy out of habit but Mac is a classy operation and their machines look great.

Facebook Becomes More Secure

I already like Facebook because of the increased security and simplicity it has over its biggest competitor (MySpace). Facebook is now even better was increased privacy functionality. You can read the Facebook blog for details.

Always remember to be mindful of what information you put on your Facebook page. Presume anyone and everyone can see your page even with the new controls.

Increasing Email Opens is important if you do an eMarketing email. This article from Constant Contact has some very good tips.

HD TVs

When I hear all the new terms related to HD TVs and all the new related technology even I get confused. Amazon has done a great job with High-Def 101 page if you are in the market or just want to understand a little bit more.

Technology on my Trip

During my vacation between Christmas and New Years I saw several things in technology that I think are worth sharing on my blog.

Many talk about digital immigrants (those not born into the computer age) and digital natives (those who are born into the computer age) but this was made very clear when I saw a child less then a year old with a computer in its car seat on the air plane. The child was not uses the mouse or typing on the key board but it was very intently focusing on the screen. This to me was a great definition of digital native.

I went to the McCormick Tribune Freedom Museum which is a very well done museum about freedom world wide. The museum has many great interactive elements that take advantage of technology. For example here is a video of screens where you can use your fingers to scroll through documents like the Decoration of Independence.



The museum also features a miniature recording studio where you can record you thoughts and feelings on what it means to be free.

I also was intrigued by the new video ads on the sub way. Look out of the windows on your sub way car on the Red Line and you will see a video. I am not sure what projection technology they were using but it was something new and different.

Technology is clearly changing the way we travel, learn and experience the media.
