Soda Stream

I haven't met very many people in my life that doesn't like to drink water. Then again I myself don't drink to much of it as I get older. Fuzzy drinks are much more tantalizing to the tongue "buds" like soda. Of course you can't drink too much soda because like everything else it'll eventually kill ya.

Here's an awesome product that will put the fizz in your drink. I had the opportunity to try this thing out and loved it. Toss in regular water and let the machine do it's thing. Presto "soda" water. You can naturally flavor it yourself.



Great Stocking Stuufferr..

The Spawn of New Generation Gamers

The first generation of gamers were predominantly males that consisted of young kids, and the classic geek who would tuck themselves away until the wee hours determined to finish all levels in one game. I recall I was in 5th grade when my father brought home our first video game console, "Pong" by Atari. The brown console with knobs attached at the both ends to and be used as controllers. Connecting the console to the television enabled you to play a simulated video game of tennis, or ping-pong, either with an opponent or against the computer. I thought Pong was the coolest thing back then but had quickly become outdated as technology rapidly grew along side the Internet spawned a new generation of gamers.

Graphics and game play improved tremendously hand in hand with technology. Portable video games were developed, and connectivity through the Internet made it possible for tournament play with opponents in other states, and countries. The possibilities of becoming a professional video game player now exist. The geek that everyone used to make fun of could finally earn recognition, and make a decent income. The thriving industry through the years finally crossed into different age groups that now has young girls, and even young professional business women jumping in on the craze.

For myself and part of the first generation of gamers I still play video games and a proud owner of a few consoles, and portable video games believe it or not. It is just part of a generation that I grew up with and as a consumer I'm happy to be part of it. I have seen the great changes within the industry and can contribute by writing about my game play through user experience.
