Technologies Class

I'm taking a Technologies class at BYU this semester, which an assignment calls for me to set up my own blog. I will also be doing a major project on some sort of technology that interests me. Instinctively I think of consumer products. However, those are only a small portion of the general term of technology. The first step of the assignment is to pick 3 potential technologies as ideas for the major project.

Here are my 3:
1.) The famous $100 laptop for under-developed nations
2.) The "atom smasher" launched today (9.10.08) in Europe
3.) Digital TV


There are so many different types of technologies, it is hard to choose. I want to find something innovative and new. Something cutting edge that has tremendous potential to make an impact on our society. I will contine searching for such a technology for the major project.
