Growing Up in Started of the Technology Age


The world had changed in last 30 years how we communicate. The computer size  was  big in the early 1980’s. In 1980’s there was not an inner net or e mail.  Face book was not a company, now it is a millions dollars company .  Today we have email and texting. The computer  are small like the I Pad.

The technology change my way of life  a lot. I can remember  using a pictures book and an ABC board. I got my first  communication device when I was 8 years old. It was big and weight 5 pounds. The device  didn’t work well. It had small printer.  I had that for 10 years. Now I have Dynavox t 10, it is like an I Pad. The  speak is clearer.
