I predict that more and more companies will put family in front of profits and WILL be CLOSED on Thanksgiving but will be open Black Friday with some incredible deals, mostly on televisions.

I've blogged many times about my cousin who lost his legs in Afghanistan and I'm impressed in his abilities to get around with just a wheelchair and his upper body strength. Yet, it would be nice to see this aspect of his life become easier. Well, that time is now with Ogo Technology.

I have plenty of time off this November, and I'm already thinking about Christmas shopping. If technology is on a loved one's wish list, CNBC has reported that Amazon will have a 6-inch tablet available for $50 just in time for your holiday shopping.

Recently I showed you a video of my son Dylan making his coloring book come to life. The image on the page became 3D using a tablet an an app. Could other images that we need to know more about be viewed in a fourth dimension or...a hologram? The PBS Digital studio's think so.

My days of needing to monitor the baby are a few years behind me now, but seeing this video still sent shock waves down my spine. The thought of a stranger looking at my baby without my knowledge is very troubling to say the least.

Here we are, just one month away from a new year and starting in January of 2015, you're going to notice some changes with your Facebook account. They are updating their terms, conditions, and policies starting on the first of January, 2015. Here’s what you can anticipate:

When I think of people who abuse technology, I think of kids/teens playing video games for hours at a time, texting late at night, sitting at the table tweeting -- basically removed from a normal existence on this planet. But it seems that might not truly be the case.

It's no question we live in a digital society.  Hey, every day, I'm badgering you to follow me on Twitter (@LauraDaniels961), but I promise it's for your own good!  I like to entertain you after our time in the morning together is over, and I also like to share cool stuff that's coming up on the show!  (And, frankly, my new Twitter account is lonely.)

What was big in your house under the tree this year?  Clothes, toys, appliances   Nope, the winner is...

Like most folks, you've probably never really read Facebook's Terms of Service. But it you had, you would have seen this telling gem:

You know it’s a bad day when a judge decides you need to spend some time behind bars because you didn’t delete your Facebook account. Is having a Facebook page now a crime? It seems that if you irk the wrong judge in the state of Kentucky, it just might be.

People sure do love their iPhones, but they also can't seem to stop dropping them—good news for the booming iPhone-repair business. In fact, a recent accident survey by SquareTrade found that the American population has spent nearly $5.9 billion fixing their damaged phones since the first device hit the market in 2007.
