Thanks to Misa Digital Instruments, the guitar no longer needs strings. Kitara, as they call it, is a digital guitar that uses an advanced multi-touch screen, a full fretboard, and a polyphonic synthesizer to create a new and custom sound to whoever controls the guitar. They have made the use of the guitar similar to that of a normal guitar including the 24 fret count, however there are a large number of features that even todays best guitarist cannot replicate. There are six buttons located on each fret instead of strings. This gives the feel of a real guitar while at the same time giving newcomers a chance to play right from the start without callused finger tips to endure the steel strings. They hope that Kitara can compete with the digital keyboard that has been the more popular of the digital instrument family and even incorporate the use of an iPad. I urge you to check out this video for a demonstration, it's only 50 seconds long.

WiFi TV's with HDMI
Ever wonder how you are going to hide all the wires coming out of the back of your TV? Well here is the future of television. With a WiFi TV and a HDMI transmitter, you will be able to mount your TV on the wall without a single device in sight. Through the use of new technology, your PS3, Xbox360, Wii, and so on will be able to transmit a signal in 1080p quality. This means you can dedicate a closet somewhere to hide your DVD player or PS3. From that location, you can transmit a wireless signal to your TV as if it were plugged in with a HDMI cable. Check out this video on youtube if you want to see more. More Info click here

Getting to know me
I'm an easy going guy who likes to look at the positive side of everything if possible. I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Information Technology at ECC and I have a previous degree in Mechanical Drafting from 2006. I use to be a volunteer for the IT Dept at ECC, then I was able to apply for a work study position which lead me to a part time position. I feel I have learned a great deal from all of these experiences and hope to continue to do so in the future. I would recommend to try and get as much hands on experience as possible because I believe this is the best way to learn. I look forward to the rest of my final semester!
