Application-Winamp

The Application which I have downloaded and now use is Winamp which is a primarily a music based application which you can do a number of things with.

With Winamp you can:

> organise your music collection
> create playlists
> tag mp3 files
> you can download skins to enhance visuals that will be seen whilst playing your music
> download plug ins to make it i-Pod friendly
> watch movies
> listen to the radio

For me this showed me just how versatile technology is and how we are becoming more and more dependent on it. I'm not saying it is taking over the world, but for those who seek easier options, there is more and more technology coming out that lets you do multiple things through the one unit.

I think it's great that applications like Winamp can be accessed on your personal computer at home or your lap top and allow you to not only listen to your own music, but allow you to listen to the radio and watch movies. I like how you can customise it to suite your needs, even though it's not a necessity it's good to be able to put pictures of what you like to make it yours.

This application really shows where technology is taking us and brings me back to the i-phone as an example. If we can access the Internet, take photos, listen to music, make phone calls, text people, read books all from a palm sized machine what will come next? Is everything going to become converged? I think that we will be coming across many more inventions which will let us carry out numerous actions in all the one place. Personally I find this exciting.
