technology

it very weird but my friends rely on my understanding of technology. and i don't even know that much. i guess people rely on my opinion about most purchases. but the technology thing has gone to another level. my friends now ask how to fix their electronics. like i know anything! i broke my ipod after just a few years! it just stopped working! well actually i think the hard drive died. i dropped it one too many times.

but i guess i'm more directed. i know what works and i start there. then i figure out what are the extras. what is what. it's pretty easy. but i guess everyone else gets so overwhelmed, they can't make a decision.

the other thing: fixing electronics. all i do is google. more often then not other people have had the same problem. and the key is to google more than one thing. usually a helpful solution is on the first page. just keep searching until you find something.

sometimes i don't even find a solution. and i have to give up. i always try again later. sometimes you just aren't searching for the right thing. and you think of something better later.

that's all the secret behind my apparently extraordinary technological skills.
