First, an amendment to what I posted on Saturday – views fell through the floor on Saturday. Fewer posts, fewer teachers, and fewer comments. You can always tell what the current comment rate is, by checking the most commented posts and seeing how many comments put them on the list. Today it was eight comments to be the lowest on the most mentioned list. Not sure what happened yesterday. Oh well, understanding the vagaries of the internet is always exciting, and hard to do!
Thanks to everyone that commented and voted yesterday!
I won’t be following up until Monday on asks for the sites. So it maybe a couple of days between the post of Saturday and the post that I will send to the admin team!
SpaceX completed its launch. It is excellent news for future space exploration. The US and SpaceX are creating a relationship between business and government. One of the things people always worry about is that Governments are not efficient when it comes to the cost of things. The private firm tries to achieve cost reductions and savings so that they are profitable. That mix of private and government will be interesting. Hopefully, between SpaceX and Virgin, the overall cost of getting things to space will begin to go down. Space Tourism is the ultimate financial driver for space programs being effective. We would not have cell phones, computers, or videogames systems without various global space programs.
I will end today with an observation.
Technology and the use of technology are not always bad. It is not still good either. Humans use technology. The human being is either good or bad in their intentions. But the technology itself does not have intent.

The weekend is always a bit slower, but I get it since I am often away from the screen during this time of the week too.
I agree with you that the way technology is used depends on the person and their intentions.
for the last two years, weekends were actually a huge uptick on Virily. Over the last month they have not been.
i worry about the overall site now.
That’s interesting because mine have been low, especially on Saturdays, for at least a few months, and other people have mentioned the same thing. Maybe yours are usually higher because you post more during the weekend.
To be honest, I don’t worry anymore but I am not very optimistic.
i only worry for the community we’ve worked so hard to keep moving forward. i actually track more than my posts,
i hadn’t tracked yours on the weekends. I will add you and see if the values change.
I never seem to notice what goes up here or what comes down lol but I did notice that my dashboard said $2 and today it says $4 so I guess things are looking up. I am glad the space launch went off all right.
i have to say I never check my dashboard anymore. I should do so.
the launch was fantastic. They docked with the ISS yesterday!
Space exploration has had side effects in technology, helped in medical science as well as cell phone technology.
Yes, technology is neither good nor bad, just the same as money,,,just a tool..
that is truly a great way to look at it! thanks Pam!
I’ve noticed that views and comments have been falling for a few days now. I don’t know if the culprit is the weekend.
they were going up earlier in May, the last two days they have dropped
Many aspects of technology are amazing. I think the police body cams are great, if they are turned on.
the new Axom models (what was used in Minneapolis) cannot be turned off
That is a great option!
They are also connected via a cellular chip so even if they are intentionally damaged the remote system will know!
All police officers should have these.
that is the goal for 2021.
hmm, that’s great and nice post!!!
thanks Hamza! i am glad you liked the article!
