Perspective on Technology

I never had any information about doing a blog. Honestly, this is my first time to know about blogs and all I know are emails and websites but not much knowledge of having them. I only had my email here lately. It is probably because we have no internet connection in the province(in Romblon State College, Sawang Campus where I serve).
By now, I realize how borderless one could be and reaching the farthest without lifting a leg. I had mailed to one of my students before who is now in Germany as a Research fellow and finding many benefits of knowing many in the web.
I find the technology very helpful and the quality of what one does with the technology would simply become a replica of the depth of knowledge one has gained, some kind of personality shift; wider perspective, neutrality in dealing with people, understanding other's situations and enjoying what we have in our country(as compared to others who grew on war torne countries) despite our being in the third world. Its understanding that despite being in a poor country, we still have much more than others have in their respective countries. It still is a must for one to keep abreast of the most recent technologies and making use of them productively and help others benefit from such use. I have encouraged my wife and children to use the computer that we may see each other while on chat, you know, to ease the pain of home sickness other than text on cell. By now, she'd been asking me of many things about what and how far computers and web could go and I enjoy it; as if I almost know all that my wife should regarding the technology.
