iPhone You

Apple has created two new iPhones.
The 2007 iPhone is an internet-connected multimedia smartphone. It contains a multi-touch screen, which replaces the key pad that is usually found on other cell phones. It contains a camera phone, portable media player, text messaging and visual voice mail. It also contains Internet services such as e-mail, Web browsing and Wi-Fi connectivity.
Apple released the iPhone 3G on July 11, 2008. It is basically the same as the other iPhone, except it has faster 3G data speeds and assisted GPS.
What do you think of the touchscreen phone instead of a regular cell phone? Do you think it will be easier to use? Will it be more useful because it contains multiple features at one time and is like a computer in your pocket?

Wii The People

Wii is a video game system that allows people to play games and imitate the actual motions of a certain activity. For example, you can bowl like you would at a bowling alley, play tennis like you would on a court, etc. Japan is now following the Wii trend. The Japanese gaming industries are creating avatars and online virtual realities that allow gamers to communicate with other gamers online through Wii and XBox gaming systems. Do you, as a consumer or gamer, think that the Wii systems are keeping people from participating in bowling at a bowling alley and playing tennis at a court, etc.? Do you think that more time will be spent playing video games then homework and other important activities or tasks? Does playing video games effect how much sleep a person gets? Does playing video games increase or decrease social skills and why? Or does it have little effect?

Voice the Vote

McCain just gave a moving speech at CSU-Pueblo Friday Oct. 3. At first I was rooting for Obama, but I think he is beat by McCain. McCain talked about taking care of wounded soldiers and pulling them out of Iraq and bringing them home safely. As a Vietnam veteran, McCain probably knows that it is dangerous to be in the midst of a war. He also talked about returning tax funds. I changed my mind. I think that McCain's speech was more precise than Obama's and he is definately a good speaker and unlike Bush, he actually cares what happens to the people of the United States. I might be voting for McCain. What are your thoughts on McCain and Palin for President/Vice President? What are your thoughts on the campaign?
