What this blog is about

It is well known that wealth is not distributed evenly on Earth. This means that things that are now usual in so-called `developed world' can be rarely affordable in most of other world. So it is difficult to define what things are reached a worldwide must-have status.

Sometimes it is even philosophy question. Is it moral enough to discuss gadgets when billion people on this planet is starving? It is what you can post comment about, but purpose of this blog is to share thoughts about how new technologies are coming into our life and how it is possible to use them to make our lives easier and more interesting.

Often I hear from the people, especially older ones, that `all this technology makes everyday tasks more complicated'. Really, migrating from hand-writing to typing in word processor software is much more complicated than migrating from manual to machine washing. This does not mean that not everyone benefits from ability to type electronic documents. I see main problem that in our digital age the price of `entry ticket' is quite high. I would like to lower this cost and discuss how we are able to make digital revolution in everyone's mind. To reach "technology to people" stage of development, because right now it looks more like "people as consumers to money-hungry technology giants".

What is really useful, practical and neat? What are next big things? Is it possible to use technology to fight inequality in the word rather than enlarge it? Everyone is welcome to share his/her thoughts!
