A Different kind of “Tech”

You know, when we think about Utah Technology, it’s easy to start think about bio-med, PDA’s, Server Farms, and Various other bits and bytes. But I think it is important to remember that for tech to be really valuable it should be able to do one of two things:

1- Make us more efficient.

2- To improve our quality of life.

It’s the second of those that I want to focus my post on today. Specifically, I want to mention snow making. This weekend I was pleased to be able to hit the slopes (Okay, I cheated a little… that picture is from last year. I didn’t bring my camera this weekend.) The snow was all completely man-made, and although definitely not the best snow I have been on, it was pretty darned good. Most important though, is that it really was a wonderful bonding experience wit me and my two teenage boys. I can’t think of anywhere else I would rather have been. Thanks to the Canyons! Definitely a tech application that improved my quality of life this weekend!
