TECH TRENDS

We stumbled onto Tech Trends while fumbling through the Internet for local content to add to the blogroll. Billed as "New Media Renaissance from a Southern Missouri Perspective," the site's operator has a lofty mindset:

We’re living in historic times. Creativity and empowerment is at an all time high. As a culture we’ve become acutely aware of our proximity to the dangers of our time. Though fear and the threat of those that wish to do the world harm are at the forefront of our societies awareness so should be our awareness that the worldwide access to information, shared resources and tools to express creativity is also peaking.

The purpose of this site is to acknowledge, share and encourage technological development in the region we work in. Those selected to participate in the creation of this site are regional superstars, soldiers in technological development. Those invited to participate have shown excellence in their professional undertakings, passion for technology and the pursuit of excellence in Interactive development.

This site is being created for the purpose of sharing our goals, ideas and documenting our regional participation in a global phenomenon, the new Renaissance.

Amen and amen. Though the stuff about us being "the last great court reporter" is a bit premature.
