idea for blog

Through out the decades, times have changed and many aspects of society have evolved. In particular, would be technology, which in my opinion is something that always changes to get better, faster, and smaller. Let's just think about computers. Fifteen to twenty years ago computers were the size of entire rooms and usually solely for government use. Then personal home computers were made and now you can get a laptop for a couple hundred dollars with much more memory and other capabilities that would cost thousands in the past. As well, you would have never imagined being able to set a computer on your lap to type this blog because the computers were gigantic! Having said all this, an idea for a blog could be to pick a decade, preferably atleast fifteen years or more from now and list all the gadgets and items we take for granted today that have recently been created. Furthermore, to prioritize these items saying which new technologies we would miss the most and why. Another example, for such a blog would be a microwave. This item was laughed at when my great grandmother wanted to buy a microwave oven because every one told her it was a waste of money and completely useless. Now, microwaves are used all the time to heat up foods, hot drinks, or even prepare complete meals.
