30 yrs ago today... The Sony Walkman

I had a radio made by AWIA, it was about the same size as the first ipod shuffle. This was back in 1984.

This brings back memories....I had the sony super walkman, bright silver and was barely bigger than a cassette tape. Had the play reverse button, you could just tap it and it would play the other side of the tape. I remember buying blank tapes by the case, was always a big deal making them fly mix tapes!

It's the opposite. We had it good back then. Think about it, kids now arent excited about shit anymore. They expect major advancements in technology on a yearly basis. When i was growing up in the 80's technology didnt move nearly as fast as it does today and everything was exciting. My walkman was the most awesome thing in the world, i carried that, and later my gameboy everywhere. Today, if a kid cant carry one device that plays music, movies, games, browses the internet, and makes phone calls, they dont want it. Kids today have great technology, i'll give them that. but, today's technology has made them numb to the next great advancements. And dont confuse people wanting the new"it" thing with people being genuinely excited and awed by new technology.
