Technology changing world

Technology can be your friend but it can also be the most frustrating thing. Being of a generation that had it introduced to me from around 20 years of age, there have been many changes/improvements.

The younger generation seem to specialize in what turns them on, and can know nothing about some technology that they have no interest in or need to know or understand.

For me it was photos. To go from having a good film camera and taking images when I was single. Needing to get the film developed with the hopes of maybe a few good images out of 24, then in 2002 my son was born, and the first digital cameras came out, so I had to have one and they were seriously expensive starting around $2000.

Now in 2022, there is so much more out there for taking photos or moving images let alone what to display them in or on. Decisions from Apple or Android, to multiple brand options on devices. to casting to a screen or on social media. Yet with so much technology out there why are we not using what we have to look at the images we are taking more often? I want to help people make the decisions that will make their lives easier. The initial process of sorting photos should then lead to how do you want to see these photos again and again.

To have images easily accessible and safely backed up, the next question should be how can I use technology to have a Photo Night or make projects to share these images. By looking back at our images we will remember the good times, and good feelings we had, we will be reminded of what an amazing life we have and how grateful we are. As there was a reason we took those images, not just to collect them on a device.
