    I still have my VCR/TV combo that my parents bought me as a gift when I graduated high school. Amazing how now all we have to do is DVR a show and can watch later without worryng if we have a VHS tape.

  • World wide web takes off

    The internet has opened my eyes to a wealth of free information. I learned a lot using the internet having received an IBM laptop in college. What a great way to connect with other professionals around the world.

    AOL Instant Messenger

    Having AOL instant messenger was a great way to stay in touch with my husband, family and friends during my college days. Also an inexpensive way to communicate long-distance rather then talking on the phone. The good old days of dial-up internet.
