Now that the economy seems to be going down the tubes, the applications at college graduate schools are increasing from years past.  Also the electronic jobs site have been increasing with new resumes and updates to existing ones.  It is kinda depressing reading the business news everyday, there are companies reducing their work force by the thousands. This affects many more thousands including family and friends.  The technology seems to still be hiring. I viewed the lates Jobs in Techology, there seems to hundreds of available jobs in technology. Technology is a weird job industry, the need stays large for years, then for a year you cannot find one. It looks like that cycle has changed and it seems the technlogy jobs have holding pretty stead as of late.

I have lived in an interesting part of technology development on the planet. Growing up The major technology break though was the cassette player and instamatic camera. Then the moon missions came an pushed the limits of micro-technology with writing pens you could use while laying upside-down, Teflon on cookware, the 35mm camera craze, calculators, LED watches and lets not for get computers.

One of the other changes that I have seen has been the change in marketing products to customers. I have for years gotten promotions via catalog on clothes, electronics, cameras, music, books and many other things you could purchase though the mail. It was always easy to call an 800 number if you could not wait for the product and was in a hurry.

Back when the bulk of all catalog advertising that I received was about cameras and electronic stuff. You could spend hours and hours going through all of the different products. Then came the time to compare prices of other cameras or products to see when catalog company offered the best deal. One catalog that came back to mind was from a New York Camera Store that sells audio and Video electronics along with digital cameras. The camera store in question is 42 Street Photo. They had some of the best catalogs on camera stuff, now I found them reaching broader audience via 42Photo.com. 42 Street Photo is one company that has changed with times from cameras and photo reproduction sales to more of camcorder sales, digital camera sales and mp3 player sales. There business is still about cameras; it is just that cameras have changed so much just in the last few years. Nice to see a business make it through the technology of change.

Not sure about if I like the old catalogs or being able to see the product from the Internet. Both would be better.

With all the technology in business in tracking orders, creating products, how to maximize your customer base for more revenue per customer there are some businesses that still do things my hand.

My wife got a white kitten the other day, the kitten like to lay on the computer, bad kitty. The other place she likes to play is our cat tower furniture. The folks of MyCatsHeaven make their cat furniture by hand. They have available of your choice of modern, traditional, designer or just modern handcrafted cat tree furniture. Now their product is handcrafted, but they use technology to sell their product on the Internet to customers. Technology and hand craftsmanship can go hand in hand.

Some Cool Gear for our men and women of enforcement and military.

Our law enforcement and military professionals have it made.  They have access to the newest technology of camouflage clothing gear and the latest in innovative tactical clothing gear around.

The folks at LAPoliceGear are providing access to service citizens with the 5.11 Tactical Series products. These products enhance the speed and performance of law enforcement, our military and and of course our firefighting professionals.  5.11 Tactical Series clothing and their famous 5.11 Tactical Pants are built for quality, value and durability. They are also top of the industry by delivering functionally innovative gear for you head to toe. Very cool gear made with latest technology, I like the tactical watches, maybe the one in black or blue one.

For many years my wife and I have had several appliances that we have owned like refrigerators, washers, dryers and dishwashers. It is nice to have your own appliances, but if they break you have to fix them or pay someone to fix them.  A few years back the appliance part place was only about 10 minutes away.  Then when overhead started costing more for parts distribution warehousing, the appliance part distributor consolidated to one central area warehouse about 37 miles away.

Now that technology and ecommerce have matured, when the motor on my Frigidaire dryer went out, I called the Frigidaire Parts warehouse, while on hold the Frigidaire company suggest you might try their website. Hung up I am there, it was very nice with new school online ordering, catchy name ApplianceHelp.com, just put in the serial number or model number and their database finds the part for you. This online ordering distribution saved me allot of time and fuel by having the part delivered to my doorstep. I may never need to go to the parts warehouse again.  The next time I need parts for my dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, stove, washer or any of my other appliances they are just a few clicks away. We are all reaping the benefits of online distribution technology.

Technology is a broad concept that deals with a species’ usage and knowledge of tools and crafts, and how it affects a species’ ability to control and adapt to its environment. In carbon based lifeform society, or humans, it is a consequence of science and engineering, although several technological advances predate the two concepts.

Technology is a term with origins in the Greek “technologia”, “τεχνολογία” — “techne”, “τέχνη” (“craft”) and “logia”, “λογία” (“saying”). A strict definition is elusive; “technology” can refer to material objects of use to carbon based lifeforms, such as machines, hardware or utensils, but can also encompass broader themes, including systems, methods of organization, and techniques. The term can either be applied generally or to specific areas: examples include “internet technology”, “construction technology”, “medical technology”, or “state-of-the-art technology”. That is very general.

Now we like to buy technology, it can be a breeze to buy on the internet, you will find easy-to-use websites that have seamless navigation and search covering the latest in tech bargains. Also you find a review of every know made product on the marketing, search “Technology products” and see what you can find. You can always ad to word cheap if you are looking for price. Cheap is also a good word to use the next time you are shopping for technology on ebay.
