I've already written most of my draft prior to figuring this blog out. I hinted to what my paper was going to be on with my lack of knowledge about most of this. I've written about the progression from indepence into dependence of our digital cultural. While I claim to be exempt, I joke. I'm as dependant on my laptop as the next guy. I wish to include thoughts about then and now. How things actually accomplish the same tasks yet are digitalized. ie. mapquest and cell phones. The outcome is the same but the conveinence is all important to a digital driven society. I've come up with alot of ideas. It was fairly simple, considering I lived to see it happen from "birth." Any suggestions would be great.

What interests me about this is how our reliance on technology has dimmed our ability to work without it. I would be hard pressed to use a typewriter. I don't know any one's phone number by heart and while I could read a map it could get frustrating without my GPS. Worse yet some people do not know how to do any of this because they have never had to. Which begs the question, what would happen if technology failed and we had to live on our own wits? COuld we?
