My aunt recently told about here new GPS-capable watch, that could track her movement during a hiking trip and later get that data on her PC and display the trip in Google Maps. She complained a bit that it wasn't easy to get the data off the watch on to the PC.

At that point I thought: You're complaining about that one step not being easy enough? Please just take a step back and consider the amazing technology at work here! A GPS device in a watch! Satellites IN SPACE to track your positions. Free global maps, including satellite images! And all that working together! And usable by a non-engineer!

The things made possible by all these technologies being so cheaply available to everyone are stunning, and we're just getting started.
