I saw this picture today and it made me smile because it’s so true. No matter the area, techies spend so much of our lives waiting. We’re either waiting for an installation, something to compile, something to run, something to download, or something pretty much out of our control.
This is precisely why we don’t charge by the hour. There’s no sense in penalizing the customer for something that’s out of either of our control. I promise though, we won’t just say “It’s your problem now.” 
So, one big piece of news this week is Google revealing one of their newest and most ambitious endeavors called Project: Glass. Project: Glass essentially does away with the need to carry a smartphone and allows you to do and see everything under the sun via a pair of glasses.
Personally, I think this can be REALLY cool if it takes off but not everyone is a fan of voice command. I know I’m not particularly fond of it and it never seems to turn out the way I wanted to when I try to use it. Secondly, what would be the price tag for something like this?
Also, I wonder how hard they are really going to push to make technology like this work.

Welcome to Technologically Speaking, the blog for the techie of today. What do I mean by techie? A techie is pretty much anyone who is employed in the I.T. field, anyone who loves gadgets, fellow technology bloggers, anyone fascinated with technology, even anyone with a remote interest in technology.
Techies have changed as much over the years as technology has. Gone are the days of techies being known as geeks and walking around in our short sleeve dress shirts with the pocket protector and taped up glasses as we’ve so often been portrayed. The modern techie is “cool”. He asserts knowledge and expertise in a way unparalleled to most techies before him and he does it with style. He is the techie that modern day techies embody and he is the techie I am.
This blog will focus on news of the day, new gadgets, feature editorial commentary, ask questions, answer questions, gives tips, tricks, reviews and updates, and hopefully incite meaningful conversation.
Stay tuned because there is lots more to come.
Are you a modern day techie or want to be one? Then lets interface…technologically speaking.
