I have been surfing around the web to find some new technology that may find its’ way into your life really soon.  I found a couple worth mentioning, so take a read.

Do you have a mobile phone?  Well quite a few people do (okay, lots of people) and it pretty much goes with them wherever they go.  Quite often, if you are popular, you may find that the standard phone book or text message box is not quite big enough for you.  Fear not, as there have been some SIM applications that have been developed that solve these problems.  If you have a GSM phone, it can be as simple as talking to your mobile phone provider, and they can upgrade your SIM chip for you.

Another cool thing on the horizon is the ability to use your computer as a point of sale terminal, similar to what you would use for payment in a store.  Thanks to the newer smart card encoding techniques used on bank and credit cards, you will be able to use chip card readers hooked directly to your computer to secure your online purchases.  No more punching in a credit card and risk your number being stolen, but instead, your transactions would be just as secure as shopping in a brick and mortar store.
