As I work through the iKnow class, I feel that I have already gained an incredible amount of new technology skills. While I feel more connected than ever, I am placing myself in yet another new arena for social networking.
I upgraded from a desktop to laptop computer when I entered graduate school in 2006. The portability of a laptop allowed me to feel connected whenever I kept my computer with me. Well, it is not practical to keep a laptop in my possession at all times. As I finish the current school year, I'm taking the next step. Even though I enjoy learning new technology, I have been intimidated to move beyond what my laptop can offer.
Neverthess, I have decided to upgrade from your standard cell phone to a smartphone. I am both excited and nervous about the prospects it provides. While I love the idea of being able to browse the internet, send email, and have a gps unit in one device, I am also afraid of being overwhelmed. The learning curve will undoubtedly be intimidating, but I'm hoping to embrace the new experience!
