If I Could Only Keep Three Tech Things

Buffer

I want to start this post off by saying I really do apologize for the lack of writing in the last 3 weeks. Between the Olympics, life, studying for exams, lacrosse and trying to study for exams I have been a little busy. Toss in my regular job, my personal life and some side work I do and crazy is not the word. I am back writing on a regular basis so everything is good now.

Today I thought I would do a look at a variation of “The if I was standard on a Dessert Island What Would I Take With Me” Theme. I call this If I Could Only Keep Three Tech Things. If I had to give up all the technical gadgets I have these are the three I would keep:

1. My Iphone – Their is no doubt. The IPhone rules. It is basically a mini computer. I use it to manage my life and then some. It has my entire schedule, contacts, audio books and email. With it I can manage a lot of things I do.

2. My Acer Netbook – My netbook is small enough to take anywhere and is the one computer (besides the IPhone) that goes everywhere with me. It provides me generally with a good computing experience.

3. My Rogers Rocket Stick – With my Rocket stick I can plug it into my netbook and have Internet access on the go. I can use it anywhere I can get get a cell signal and it provides me with an HPA connection. Portable Internet on the go is amazing.

Notice in all of these choices no where did I mention my Big Screen TV. In a lot of ways, TV is changing and more and more will be available online. Now the question is , what three things would you keep?

I am a new Iphone user and I am not sure what I did before???

The way I am thinking about it is what do I always have when I leave home...that is techy

1. My Phone
2. My Mac
3. Non techy is whatever book I'm reading at the time and it is in my computer bag. Currently reading 4 hour work week, only 60 pages into it and love it.

Thank you John for your comment. We think too much a like sometimes. I really like the sunglasses comment:)

Great post Rob and I love the no mention of the Big Screen TV! I have a Big Screen as well, but I can live without it if I have Internet access and my laptop.

My three things:
~My iPhone - same reasons as you listed and more.
~My MacBook Pro - TV, everything else I can need or use.
~A good pair of sunglasses - have to protect the eyes :-)

Thanks,
John
