Put your feet up...the world is at your fingertips.

So today was my big debut at choosing the daily photo challenge. The group maintains a huge spreadsheet of every topic chosen over the last two years, but since I wanted to come up with something that hadn't been done before, I had to really rack my brain for a new concept. It wasn't easy because they've pretty much covered everything. In the end, I decided on "trend."

Because I had a hair appointment that lasted over two hours and then afterwards we went to dinner over Mel C's house, I didn't have a whole lot of time to brainstorm my own photo. When I was fooling around with my camera settings last week, I took a photo of Lauren playing on the iPad, so I decided to do it again, only this time putting a little bit more thought into the shot.



So while it would have been fun to do a photo about 80's style big hair, reality television, or coffee houses, I went with the rise of tablet computing. In the last two years, tablet computing has become mainstream, with the iPad leading the charge. And for the children of today, touchscreen technology is the blackboard of tomorrow.

Oh, and you can play a lot of really bitchin games on it.
