I'm going out on a limb here by dedicating this post to those experiencing summer in the Northern Hemisphere currently. Although I am one who lives down south who is currently experiencing winter, summer is more fun to talk about. Just a disclaimer.
I am once again taking a dive into the deep-end by assuming that you readers are well-aware about various gadgets and the technological trends which the world experiences. These trends are continuously speeding up, making their purposes ever more obsolete faster and faster. If you are one who is not clued up, please visit Stuff.com. If you are one who chooses not to be clued up, then go away.
Stuff is magazine entirely dedicated to the latest gadgets leaving you drooling after just one read. With their monthly rankings of various technological devices at the end of every issue, it's a pretty helpful tool in assisting ones purchases. Do yourself a favor and just read it. Who doesn't like some occasional product lusting?
I thought that this segment could come out every season. The only problem is, which hemisphere do I follow? (due to seasonal opposites) Me being one of the ten percent of the global population residing down south, and assuming that most of my readers are from the north, a problem arises. I don't know the outcome. All I know is that it's winter down here and as much as I enjoy it's perks, summer is undoubtedly a better time to be outside, capturing memories and being antisocial with one's cameras and cellphones as if social awkwardness is a new hipster trend.
I will be discussing one of each technological essential required to enhance one's life and everyday experiences during the lovely summertime slowly awakening up north, you're welcome.
Beats Studio Headphones
The sun is out, being it in America, Europe or the East, you're sitting in a park leaning against a tree, perhaps reading a book? That's your choice. But you have your cellphone / music device handy and ready to blast the tunes. Here are your trusty headphones! They may be too bulky but then you discover that they fold up making them darn convenient. One specification; in my mind, they have to be green. I think it's a summer color but I may be wrong. I just like it.
Let's paint another picture. Still in a park. I assume that all first-world-youth do is sit around in parks all day because the weather does not cater for the beach. However America begs to differ, I am just making a generalization, and a terrible one at that. Anyway, the park, perhaps with a picnic? Again, it's your choice. You're with friends, laughing at the funny faces they pull in each photograph taken with this photographic masterpiece. I believe that this camera is brand-spanking new to the shelves of global photographic stores. In a nutshell of a nutshell, it's an updated / identical version of it's parent the 650D.
You may be wondering, why not the Iphone 5? In my head, the Iphone 5 is old news. As soon as speculation of a 5S emerges into the mainstream, I struggle to fixate on something that will soon be replaced by a better one. The Stuff magazine refers to the S4 as a 'superphone' which it is, obviously.
You're still sitting in that park with your mates, snapping picture after picture. But this is where that new hipster trend comes in, the social awkwardness being observed by a strange man sitting on the nearby bench. He wonders to himself; "Why aren't these kids talking to eachother?" Instead, what he fails to observe exactly what the kids are doing, Instagramming. Obviously this phone offers more than that, but that's a general popular activity done on devices such as these. Keep it on you always, after all, it's your life companion and carries the risk of replacing friends. One needs a balance of the two.
Just an incredibly fun device to own. Enough said.
Preferably an Ipad or Android device. However I do find certain Android tablets to be bulky, it's entirely up to you. Another device to confuse the man sitting on the nearby park bench. If you are fortunate enough to live in a city where wifi is everwhere, this will be one of your most valuable possessions. It's pretty much everything-in-one but I'm sure that you already know that.
It's much easier to establish the importance and life enhancement which these products are able to provide if you picture them in situations, much like the park idea explained. That applies mainly to Europeans, assuming your summer weather isn't all that summery. Americans, go wild, let your imagination paint a picture of how you would use these products to such as extent that it triggers your bank account.
Well those are the essentials, put them together in one bag and you've you yourself a few grand in whatever currency you may use. Please look after them, let them not get stolen. (yes, dad)
