Just a Starter

Readers, we are living  21st century and things are changed to a great extent. This Blog is created to share each others views that how our future will look like and what facilities will be available to make our life easy and more luxurious. In general we are noticing advancements in technology and it is getting cheaper and cheaper with time passes. Due to new additions and improvements in technology, it is also getting cheaper and hence is reachable to common people. There are lots of examples comes in our mind for such advancements and I'll like to add few here for reference.

Cell Phone
I remember when I saw first cell phone in late 90s and I was amazed to know how it works and what technology is used in it. Later I had discovered that in general the cell phones are of two types GSM based and AIMS based. In simple the cell phones which needed SIM cards were called GSM while the ones with no need of SIM cards were called as AIMS Based technology. Now, I haven't seen anyone who has no cell phone with him and even sanitary workers carry one or sometimes two cell phones with them

Dish Antennas
No doubt the dish antenna was brought to Pakistan in late 80s, correct me if I'm wrong, and was considered as status symbol. Now a days the next generation of dish antennas is available even in villages and its due to advancements in technology. Now thousands of channels are on air and new technologies like satellites are being used to provide entertainment and information across the universe.

Computers
Originally, they were the size of a large room, consuming as much power as several hundred modern personal computers. I remember the first computer which I used in 1994 was with windows 3.1 and which was loaded from command prompt. The rivalry in computer hardware and software companies and improvement in their research and development departments, now we are going to see and then use tablet PCs for our day to day needs.
