As a telephone technician and engineer I used to spend a lot of time on the leading edge of technology, I knew what cell phones were before anyone else except a select few, in 1981, but I was also one of the last people I knew to get a cell phone of my own, in 2002. I also had "email" back when I installed the first nodes on NYSERNET, part of DARPANET, before Al Gore invented the internet, and had three computers networked in my home in 1986. I also had a GPS receiver in 1991, as part of a phone company project.
Lately though, I just sit back and watch it go by, I got my first cell phone of my own in 1999 and still don't use all of the gadgetry on it, I just want a phone. I have a PDA, but it's not connected to any networks. My wife bought herself a flat screen TV and we have a couple of DVD players. Even my guns are older technology, except for the lasers and dot sights.
I'm content, for the moment, to let everyone else twitter, I'll just blog along at my same old pace, like that old bull.
Anyone Here Twitter?

Real gun control, carrying 24/7/365
Re: Anyone Here Twitter?
Jim I agree,
I was never on the cutting edge of anything but a knife a few times & then had to be sewed up.
I want a phone that works. I have recently learned to install the directory for the church so I dont have to carry one. I Have a phone, voice message, & email. Love the internet for 4 gun boards & the friends here.
I have not yet gone to dot scopes or laser grips.

Carry 24-7 or guess right.

The NSSF is using it to keep everyone informed of the goings-on at this year's SHOT show.
