Seriously, a single week doesn’t go by without some sort of technology advancement.
At times, it is hard for my meager brain to contemplate.
I still feel a bit skittish on the toll the tech wave is taking on my privacy. But, I have come to really enjoy all the things tech can help me accomplish. So, I guess it’s safe to say that I have bought in fully. The apps, I can’t get enough of. There are so many on my phone that I am a bit embarrassed. Weirdly, my favorite app isn’t something all the hip or cool. I am smitten with the app for my smart HVAC thermostat. Could I be much lamer? I just can hardly believe that I have to ability to remotely manipulate the HVAC setting in my house when I am at the office or on vacation. The HVAC smart thermostat has been a real wonder in itself. My wife was the driving force behind having it installed. Her friend stated that it had done wonders for generating savings on the monthly utility bill. This was true. Without doing anything other than installing it, the smart thermostat saved us 10 percent on our electric bill the very first month. Then, I started playing with the app as though it were a toy. But, I learned that eh best thing to do is to simply let the smart thermostat alone. These thermostats do a far better job when they learn a households patterns. So now, I just do my best to leave the apps alone and let that awesome piece of technology keep saving me money.
