As part of the 23 learning 2.0 Things my BLOG needs to comment on technology...anything that interests me...well I'd like an automatic food dispenser, an electric blanket that is warm in winter and cool in summer and ...well thats about it really. Is ther other technology?

The female that lives in my house, the one who gets up at night to let me out, no the other one, commented that computer technologies so rapidly changing that anyone using old technology is just about dead in the water.
Old technology is anything older than 2 years , Even that's a stretch, and that the old computer just has to go. The Luddite can's understand why as we only just had it upgraded a year and half ago. But its difficult to explain why we need to get new computers, (yes, plural) and an external hard drive, and a wireless modem, and a wireless printer.
With all the members of the family trying to access information and communications at the same time it is important to have more than one access point.
To make those access points more viable they need to be portable, thus wireless modem and printing.
Because all the communications, photos and music is now digital we need external storage. We also need lots of usb memory sticks to get info from one place to another....so no more floppy discs and few CDs.
All of this puts an enormous strain on the family budget (less available funds for Wiskas).
Once upon a time we used the phone to talk to people, or letters to write to the. Records played on the hifi or we listened to the radio or watched the TV.
Bills for Broadband, updating equipment, dowload costs (especially music as we would'nt want to rip it)
And the electricity to run it all!
Meow and big stretch...prrrr

Well, here we are again. Monday.
They kicked me out of the house this morning and it was very frosty.
Think they'd let sleeping cats lie. Just because I had to go to the toilet 3 times last night and THEY had to get out of bed to let me out. Go on, blame the cat!
What a shocker of a weekend. Couldn'd do anything, there were people in my house all weekend...and they didn't even make crumbs.
At least when the have the bbq going I get a decent feed, but no... punish the cat again, had strangers in my house, in my chairs, in front of my heater!
Better treat me nicer or I'll go and throw a hairball on the carpet.
Yeeh, that'll fix em

Hey, groovy cats,
Welcome to my cata-blog!
my name is Holly Snow, I'm a supercat!
Well, in my mind, I'm super.
My people reckon I'm super fat, super greedy and super lazy!
This is the first entry in my new blog.
When I do something I'll let you know, but it could take some days....maybe I am superlazy.
Meow for now!
Holly Snow, supercat
