Round Robin Challenge: Old Tech, New Tech

Hi, Robins! As I set here with my iPhone 4S and a not-so-new computer (two of them, actually), I find myself thinking about how radically our lives have changed in the past ten years, let alone over the past half-century since I started first grade. Which leads us to our next Challenge. The topic for Saturday, November 2nd is


Old Tech, New Tech

Show us a contrast between some kind of technology you used years ago and something you use for the same purpose today. Or maybe you want to go further back, and compare today's gadget with really old technology, as used centuries or millennia ago. Old photos of the old tech are fine, as long as you took them - but let's have new photos of the latest and greatest!

You know how this works, right?

1. Grab your camera and bring us one or more pictures showing off old tech and new tech devices for doing basically the same thing. Archived photos are okay as long as you took the photo yourself.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, Saturday, November 2nd, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.

4. Please visit the other Robins' entries, and comment if so moved. The list of entries will be posted at the bottom of this entry starting around midnight MST on the Challenge date, and updated through the day.

That's all there is to it! Have fun, and go be photographers!
