Social Media is a HUGE part of our everyday lives…especially for teens. But what happens when a teenager’s social network goes awry?  How does a parent help them cope?

As of today, Katy Perry’s hit song “Teenage Dream” is well on its way to surpassing 86 MILLION, YouTube views!  This really got me thinking on the past.  We too often forget how incredibly hard those years of “living a teenage dream” really are.

Internet Explorer usage has been in decline –rapidly– according to a recent TechnoBuffalo article. Fall of the go-to web browser?

The tech blog reports, that “across all traffic, IE weighs in at 49.58 percent of users” which is a “drop-off of 1.76 percentage points” from just last month.

This is a dangerous sign of things to come for Internet Explorer.

That’s right: Kim Kardashian divorce from Kris Humphries comes after only 72 days of marriage!

The Web has come a lonnnnnnnng way since the early 90s; the evolution is quite stunning! We have transitioned from Netscape Navigator, AOL, and dancing babies to online retail stores, video conferencing, and augmented reality. Life without the web is hard to imagine, but it’s even harder to believe that the web has only been around just a few years! Imagine where we will be in 2020 – holographic projections perhaps?  Take a stroll with me down digital memory lane as we look at the evolution of two of the worlds most popular websites: Apple.com and McDonalds.com

 If you’ve never heard of Marissa Mayer, one of Google’s senior executives (one of few women exectutives in tech), allow me to fill you in:

• According to Wikipedia, Mayer was born in 1975
• She graduated from  Stanford University
• She joined Google in 1999, when the company had under 20 employees (talk about the right place at the right time!)
• Mayer became the first female engineer hired by Google
• Over 10 years later, Marissa is a Google Executive with her official title being; Vice President of Location and Local Services, and is frequently the warm, public face of the tech Goliath

To me personally, this short synopsis is extremely inspiring.

What better way to mourn the passing of Steve Jobs, a technology titan, than with a simple cartoon about Moses, tablets, and the pearly gates?  It’s important to take a moment to laugh and admire Steve’s simple and humble grandeur. 

“Design is the fundamental soul of a man-made creation that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or service.” – Steve Jobs 

Steve’s legacy lives on in the soul of all he has helped to design.
