This blog covers technology and their implications for individuals, organizations and society. How a piece of technology can gain the trust and recognition of people to swarm towards their products and rate all others based on it. We chose this blog because of the way Apple has made more people look towards their other products, so people can feel the same experience. This relates to our class because we use a number of Internet applications and the technology just keeps getting better.
