My views of chapter 1

I was interested to see the history of computers as described in the chapter.  I am definitely not computer literate by any means.  The MOOC's are very interesting to me.  We live in a much smaller world than we ever have before.  Smartphones, laptops, ebooks, and technology in general has made the world a much smaller place. 

They also discuss multitasking, which I am not good at either.  Studies have shown that it is counterproductive.  The example they use is driving and texting, perfect!!!!!

The chapter is a perfect summary of the history of technology up to this point.
