Truth be told, I have never possessed a warm feeling for blogging. While I may show some bias going into Ed 3508, I am still open to persuasion. Obviously there are teachers who believe that blogging has its merits in the classroom and I am very curious to see if this course can change my own predisposition. Who knows, maybe by the end of the year I won't be able to live without my new blog. Until then I don't yet count blogging as one of my interests. Some of my interests include music (I play guitar and occasionally sing in a band), travel, movies, skiing and snowboarding, reading, and video games. Since this blog is for a course focussed on technology, I thought that I would mention a few technological pastimes I enjoy. I enjoy video editing with programs such as Adobe Premiere and iMovie, the movies I make are usually in the form of a music video with clips taken from some of my favourite video games. I've also been known to have fun fiddling around with recording programs such as Garage Band making songs out of the prerecorded loops or of my own playing. Most recently I have become interested in photography and can spend hours messing around in Photoshop. I hope you enjoy the photos of bison and the Grand Prismatic Spring from my trip to Yellowstone this summer. 
That said, I've always enjoyed computers and what they're capable of. I've had experience with both pc and mac, although as of late I tend to favour macs . . . that might have something to do with my lovely new iMac. I hope that this class will further broaden my appreciation for technology, including some of the elements that I had not previously considered.
Until next time,
Mac.
