The Changing Face of Technology


I read an article today about how in the future we could be using the iPhone 8 as a gaming console. I can imagine that easily today but if someone had suggested it to me even a year ago I would have looked at them like they were a few fries short of a happy meal.

Technology is changing fast. In 2007 Amazon came out with the Kindle reader and then, in 2009, the Kindle 2. Not surprisingly 2009 is also the year self-publishing started to take off.

What will the future hold in store for writers? I look forward to finding out.

Foxconn currently is also likely to produce 12 million units of Kindles for Amazon, and 38-40 million units of iPads as well as 80-85 million iPhones for Apple a year ...

That's a lot of ereaders! If this is any indication, the trend toward ebooks is going to continue.
