Me, myself, and I don't know what else.

an introduction

Technology or bust

Throughout time, man has always found ways of making life a little bit easier. Whether it be the first human wise enough to strike a fire for warmth, or the first time Opera implemented tabbed browsing, the process never halts.

The term "technology" seems to be used more now than ever before, and rightfully so, as it becomes a more and more prevalent part of our everyday lives. Even on camping trips to the most remote of places, seldom will you find a camper without their handy G.P.S. or cell phone (or perhaps a cell phone with GPS built it). It makes one ask "How did people survive without this before?"

However, as this has caught on, so has the interest in marketing what some may consider "useless inventions" (i.e. the "Drink Buddy" app for the iPhone, which uses math problems to gauge your level of inebriation). Sheer brilliance? That's for the consumer to decide.

What is certain, on the other hand, is the fact that technological developments are a "never-ending wheel" of ingenuity and something new is always around the corner to make today's convenience tomorrow's history lesson.
