I'm a digital native...

Being born with technology around me, I tend to think of myself as a digital native. Though we didn't get our first computer until 1995 (when Windows 95 hit the market), I certainly quickly learned the ways of using the PC. Ever since, I was writing in Word, making slideshows in PowerPoint, and learning the powerful features of Excel. I had an email before most people my age, though I hardly used it. I chatted on the messengers late at night using the quick text that is now commonly found on cell phones' text messages. I've gone back to using full English, trying to stay away from the acronyms and short hand that people find "useful".

Now, I do print documents out and read them occasionally because I find that it's easier on my eyes now. In fact, I've used a computer so much, that they have started to give me migraines if I'm on them for an extended period of time. So after some research and suggestions from doctors and eye doctors, I purchased some Gunnar Optiks digital glasses to relieve my eye stress.

I suppose that shows you how much I use computers, devices, and digital media.
