My First Video Gaming System
My first video game system was the original Nintendo. I received it when I was 7 years old. -
My First Computer
My family purchased a computer in 1992. It used the original floppy disks that were in fact floppy. -
The Internet
A year before I graduated from high school, my family purchased our first internet contract. It was AOL's dial up service. -
My First DVD player
When my husband and I got married, we bought a VCR. About a year later, we upgraded to a DVD player. -
My First Digital Camera
When my first son was born we had to have the lastest and greatest digital camera. We wanted to perserve those precious memories. We bought a $400 3.1 megapixel Kodak digital camera that was 4 times as large as most current point and shoot cameras. -
My First MP3 Player
My husband and I purchased our first mp3 player in 2004. It was huge and had a very limited amount of storage space. -
My First Cell Phone
I purchased my first cell phone in 2005. -
My First Tablet
I received an iPad 1 for my birthday in 2011. -
My First Smartphone
I received an iPhone 4 for my birthday in 2012. I had told my husband I didn't need a smartphone, but he ignored me. I must admit that I have come to appreciate internet access anytime, anywhere. -
Joining the Social Networking World
I resisted the urge to join facebook for quite a long time, and made my account in 2013. It has made the world seem much smaller.
