The Societé has entrusted me with the responsibility of keeping all us curmudgeons abreast of technology. I have assumed it was a testimony to my interest in technical things, my keen mind, my clear presentation of difficult topics, but alas, it was my nerd reputation.
Nonetheless, as I have mentioned in past entries in this oervre, this "technology" thing, taking into account curmudgeons, spans the invention of touch-tone phones to the nuances of internet-ready TVs. Frankly, it can get exhausting. Especially when technology moves so fast that today's "ultimate solution" is tomorrow's "that model is so yesterday."
But I have a budget, so I can have some fun. I recently bought a "Sphero" on their dime. Clever little toy. Actually, a rather frustrating - but clever - little toy. It races about under the control of your phone! And you can change its color! My Sainted wife's observation: "is that all it does?"
Good thing I could voucher it -- it will very shortly be reminding me of once having bought the game "Simon."
