Class,

I wanted to start off with a video series I have followed for a while.  It is called Did You Know, Shift Happens.  Check out both links and let me know you thoughts. How has technology been drivers in this shift?

Also check out the number of changes between 2007 and 2010.  Not a long time has passed and amazing how things have shifted.  ;)

Welcome Class

Welcome Class,

I have created this blog as another way for me to share information in a much more informal way.  Please check weekly for new updates.  I also encourage you to comment and add information to be shared with the class.  Imagine this blog as you favorite coffee shop where we can meet and discuss the events of the day. :)

The class, as you know, is focused on the integration of technology into our society. I look at this integration of technology as a shift that is changing the ways we interact in the world. This blog will bring anything related to the integration of technology or the effect of technology to a format where can openly discuss and critique.  Topics such as health care, globalization, economics, marketing, and many others are open to be discussed.

Once again, welcome to the class and check in and post often.  I look forward to sharing with all of you.

Emily
