For once there is some bi-partisan agreement on an issue.  :-)

Both Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama have used their campaign resources to get their supporters to help that Gulf Coast region in need.

Both have used text messaging to get the word out.

Technology is changing the world politics too.

Good to see that in times of crisis there is no time for politics.

With Hurricane Gustav bearing down on the Gulf Coast the need to communicate could not be greater.

The major providers of cell phone service seem to have learned from Hurricane Katrina, and are prepared this time to keep the flow of information going throughout the storm.

Just keep all of the folks in the Gulf Coast region in your prayers.

Traditionally, August is the vacation month.  With the use of technology we can communicate by email and text almost instantly.

It almost makes you wonder . . . why even go on vacation?

In the U.K., it seems that technology may have helped inspire people to communicate the "old school" way.  The postcard is the new hot item to send.  Simple and very direct.

In a world that has become increasing isolated and cold.

It is good to know that not everyone has lost that personal touch.

Happy and Safe Travels.

I will be looking for my postcard from you in the mail!  :-)

Are you looking down getting ready to send that important text message then . . . BOOM . . . you run right into that brick wall?

Doctors are saying that you are not alone in getting hurt while texting.

It seems that folks are getting injured more by not paying closer attention while communicating.

Be careful.

Make sure you look up and don't run into the wall!

Have you ever dropped your phone in the water?

Then realize that you did not get the protection plan for the phone, which meant that you would be on the hook financially to replace it.

Of course, in our present high tech world someone had to invent a product to deal with this issue.

Looks like some folks have figured out a way to protect your phone with a splash proof coating.

Looks like an interesting idea and product.

Well . . . Well  . . . What will they think of next?  :-)

For all my talk about texting your friends and family.  It seems that most folks don't even use the text feature on their cell phones.  A recent survey found that most people don't even text.

Go figure.

Hmmm . . . I guess that is why there will be an even greater need for "Talking Technology with Leroy Jones, Jr." in the future!   :-)

Wait a minute.  Maybe I can change the name of my site.

How about . . . "Leroy Jones, Jr. the Tech Guru"!  :-)

Just think about all of the modern technology that you will be using today.

Cooking and still burning up food on your new modern gas grill.  :-)

Listening to music downloaded on your iPod that you place into your iHome.  So you can listen to all of your "old school" jams!  :-)

Calling or sending text messages to folks on your new iPhone to ask them to bring the stuff you forgot to pick up at the store yesterday. :-)

There are so many more things that will touch your life today as you celebrate this day of our country's Independence.

Just remember that the most important thing you can do today is to enjoy the day with all of your family, friends, and love ones.

HAPPY 4^th of JULY!!!
