I Heart Technology

As I've been pondering future post ideas and branching out from beyond SharePoint here and there, I realized I have quite a few technologies that are "near and dear" to me that I could write about.

In no particular order:
  • laptop
  • smartphone
  • iPod Nano
  • Kindle
  • iPad
  • Windows Media Center
  • xbox360
  • my KEURIG! (added the morning after I originally posted in a caffine withdrawn stupor)
While you probably wouldn't blog about them like me :), how many technologies do you consider "near and dear" to you?

  1. Mine are kindle, laptop, iPad. I like my keurig,too, but it's not as dear to me as the others!

    1. I definitely could survive without the Keurig - but it would be replaced with the Starbucks drive thru which is much harder on my pocketbook. :)

  2. So many things are near and dear to me!! I couldn't even try to survive sans iPhone, iPad, laptop, desktop, treadmill, keurig, and a few others!!

    1. Ooh! Treadmill - hadn't considered something like that...but you're right, that is an awesome piece of technology.

  3. I think my most prized piece of technology is my iPad followed closely by my laptop. I could probably live without my smartphone and definitely without my Keurig. I don't drink coffee too often...

    1. I would agree the iPad and laptop are probably at the top of my list, but I think I would reverse the order since I do both work and personal work (I'm a seller on Etsy) on my laptop. The iPad is for consuming, but the laptop is for doing.

    1. Amen! And I love McDonald's new coffee - I don't have a Dunkin Donuts near me but I've heard they have great coffee!

  5. Pretty much a laptop for me, unless you count a television as a piece of technology.

    1. Definitely count television - especially all the stuff that goes with it, DVR, Netflix, Hulu, et cetera.

  6. I've never really thought about this before, but here's the stuff I couldn't live without:

    1. My Keurig (though I use the refillable coffee kcup so I can buy whatever type I want)
    2. My iPhone (I'm addicted...I really need a 12 step program for disconnecting from the web)
    3. Quia.com for creating quizzes and activities for my students
    4. Spreadsheets. I'm a fiend. I use them for everything.
    5. Yoga - not really a technology, but I need it to stay sane during the school year!

  7. My little canon s95 camera and my computer top my list. iPhone isn't far behind. Hoping a new SLR will soon be very near and dear.

  8. Probably my macbook, then my iPad then my phone. I also love my camera and my nook. Man, I'm a geek! Oh, and I love my apple tv.

    1. I need to checkout the features on the nook - I'm a kindle user right now but need (okay, WANT) to upgrade to a newer model and it might be time to shop around a bit.
