Tech Savvy Boom
Who can teach tech these days, better than children? Kids are practically born with a wireless mouse in their hands. It starts in the early years with electronic educational games that teach kids their numbers and colors, periodic tablesand ,presidents....etc.
Next, the family PC replaces these "toys." By middle school, each child needs his or her own laptop. When kids hit the teen years it’s all about  iPads , tablets and smart phones complete with expensive data plans and unlimited texting.
If you were about my age you can see how communication habits have  changed as we get older. For example, children aged 12 to 15 are likely to spend just three percent of their time on voice calls, while the vast majority of their time  is spent on text-based communications or social networking.
Although adults are using digital text-based communications, they operate in a different way to the younger generation. Adults tend to like email , in marked contrast to the 12- to 15-year-olds who do.
Emailing or texting is also more popular than sleeping, apparently. The average adult now spends more time using media or communications than they do sleeping .
But if eight hours a day sounds reasonable, we are actually squeezing more into our day by multitasking on different devices. 
Not surprisingly there has been a change  from the desktop computer, which is being replaced by the tablet and the smartphone.  What would be our next step?

  4. Children six years managed better technology than adults 45 years
    The study, which measured the digital quotient (DQ) of 800 children and adults during 2013 2000 established that small of between 6 and 7 achieved a score of 98, two above that achieved by the 45 adults.
    With the arrival of broadband in 2000 was born a new generation of children, rather than talk, and learn how to smartphones or tablet computers work.

    The report notes that most teenagers prefer to communicate through social networks like Facebook, send instant messages via apps like Whatsapp or use Snapchat or Instagram to share videos or photos.

    The most voracious of communication, according to the study, young people aged 16 to 24, who get to spend 14 hours and 7 minutes a day engaged in multitasking or doing several things at once, such as texting while watch television.

  5. Tech savvy
    The internet is created in 1972 for the army in the United States of America in this time was the boom for the world. I think because the world chance the people have to chance too because the technology, internet it’s the network it’s have the people connected with all the world for emails, blogs, social networks like Facebook, Twitter , Instagram, in their phones calls by roaming o texts messages for Whatsapp, BB Messenger or Line, everyone needs to be a little bit of tech savvy for the exigencies of this evolution. I am not a Tech savvy I think that’s too much job to me.
    I have an anecdote with my mom has sixty years old, and mi little daughter have seven years, my mom ask to Hannah how to use the computer because the kids in these days are super smart so the have skills with all the gadgets like the tablet, iPods, iPad, laptops, smart phones, If you gift a new gadget to a old person the don’t have any idea how to use because in pass years the don’t have this device.
    My best friend his a tech savvy , he knows everything about technology, he fixes laptops, cell phones, tablets, IPod, Ipads,Mp3 Player etc, He is a systems Engineer when I have a tech problem I call immediately to him , and I know he make a excellent job with my device.

    1. children at a young age know much about technology, which I see sometimes necessary and unnecessary for children to use as much technology for a child, You can make more dependent on their devices become more lazy, but I do not deny it's a good item, but gradually you may be losing communication, with family or sometimes also in very bad taste to be talking to someone y feel ignored by either using tablet computers, phones and everything that relates to modern technology, but it is very interesting to learn every day more of the technology and we learn new things every day now with technology everything is much easier, we can communicate much easier to make texting faster now be a new invention would be much more it easy for us to answer the phone or was the apparatus were smaller

  7. Improve Communication

    Business technology is important because it improves communication in the workplace. Office workers are not limited to phone calls or inter-office mail to interact with one another anymore. Electronic mail allows workers to send messages instantly without interrupting the recipient. Business technology also improves communication with clients and business partners because information can be passed through multiple channels almost instantly.

    Human Capital

    Technology in the workplace improves the efficiency of screening, recruiting and hiring potential candidates. Businesses utilize the Internet to spread the word about the organization and advertise job openings. Hiring managers can target candidates by using digital advertising technology that tracks the websites they visit. Technology like personality assessments and screening tools allow businesses to determine whether a potential candidate is an appropriate fit for the organization.

  11. These technologies enable the elderly to increase and improve their individual and social development and improve their quality of life since technically, economically, politically and culturally. Healthy mind, healthy body, and therefore the intellectual activities support and enhance autonomy in old age, which are considered a protective factor against a decadent age. Internet applications such as email and online access to information resources, they provide particular advantages because mastery of these skills increases their self-esteem.

  15. Humans taught a robot how to do karate

    I was reading an excellent article about humans teaching robots human behavior, one of the examples is teaching karate to a robot this was astonishing for me and of out curiosity saw that I was right about the great break through, continuously the story of the robot.

    The Institute for Human Learning and Machine Cognition (IHMC) which sounds like a facility where robots reprogram rebel humans to become sympathetic with the machine plight taught its humanoid robot Atlas to mimic The Karate Kid’s famous crane kick.

    Standing 6-foot-2 and weighing a bulky 330 pounds for its height, the robot named Ian has learned to balance atop a thin column of cinder blocks while it mimics the famous movie move.

    At the moment, Atlas has not actually jumped and performed the kick, but it perfectly mimics the crane-like intro stance. Sure, the kick itself may have always looked cheesy even back in 1984 but the mere act of being able to set up for it proves that Atlas has phenomenal balance for both humanoid robots and humans alike.

    Atlas was built by Boston Dynamics, which was acquired by Google last year. Google followed that acquisition with the purchase of Deep Mind, a human-like artificial intelligence company.

    Aside from cornily standing atop the concrete version of a beach log, the bipedal robot can climb rough terrain, and can “see” thanks to a laser rangefinder and stereo cameras.

    For now, Atlas cannot perform the latter half of the crane kick because jumping is still a tall task for humanoid robots.
