Topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, nectarines & sugar-free syrup.

Intuitive Technology

Who would have thought:
Andrea posting an entry on Technology?

No shit everyone, Lloyd posted this video on Facebook
which Austen told me about (because I am hardly ever on FB).
---(thank you both)---

Intuitive Technology is going to be BIG.
I am still waiting.
It is good to know brilliant geniuses are thinking about technophobic people like me.
It is assuring to know that craft might have a chance to be revived
and humans will regain their humanistic ways.
I don't want to be a computer sitting in front of another computer
or a slave to an iPhone or "net book" (whatever those are).
I think Apple is doing a great job
moving towards the direction of non-exclusive intuitive technology.
(non-exclusive referring to the non exclusion of tech "savy-less-ness" or tech-impaired people like myself)

But seriously, what this guy is doing makes the iPad seem prehistoric!

I'm still waiting!
Please Watch if You Have Not Seen This!
