Where have I been?

After listening to Professor Isakov's presentation on all of the new technology for journalists, I felt like I had been living under a rock for the past few months. I hadn't ever heard of any the things he was talking about, except for one. I don't normally keep good track of all of the new technologies being used, but I'd like to think that I know enough about them. But everything the professor was showing us was brand new to me.

I think my favorite thing was the Esquire cover that featured Augmented Reality. That was unbelievable to me! Something so simple as putting a code on the front cover and then allowing the user to access this through a webcam is amazing. I'm not a big fan of Robert Downey Jr. but I loved the special features Esquire offered to its subscribers.

I'll have to keep better track of what is going on in the technology world because I'm clearly missing out!
