Technology is getting more and more amazing, and also easier to apply to everything we do these days, isn't it ? Take Google's Earth Eye in the Sky for instance. No place to hide from it .
As to those who see dangers in the advancement of technology and the possible infringement on their personal freedom, maybe they should remember what Winston Churchill said, as he puffed on his Cuban cigars, and sipped his French Cognac: “A pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
Experience, learn, teach others about the great opportunities technology and particularly the role Internet plays in this. Never allow anyone to try and curb this "8th wonder of the world" or similar innovations which will follow. They can only advance mankind.
Among some of the many marvels available to you through the Internet today .
