With the technology boom that is happening in the prime time of our lives, its easy to adjust with new forms of technology that may be produced. The generation gap between us and our parents is so clear when it comes to technology. It seems that any new technical product that comes out (ipods, computers, tablets), we can pick up and know how to use it right away. However, our parents and the people of their generation cannot do this so naturally. Throughout the city, I am beginning to see a presence of electronic billboards at bus stops. Some feature games that you can play, or some interactivity that draws you in. Just the other week in downtown I saw an e-board that let you explore the depths of the ocean and look at different marine life (promoting the Aquarium of the Bay). Technology has become so mixed within our daily lives and its beginning to become infused with more and more aspects, such as advertising. Its interesting to think about how much technology will rule our lives in the future and what new technology is gonna create the gap that we have now (between us and our parents per say) that will separate our generation and the next.
