Entry #3 - The Future & Technology

Technology

Technology has the world at it's fingertips.
             
 As humans evolved from ape-like ancestors, so has  technology, from the evolution of the earliest tools to the latest trend in electronics, as well as the future. Whether society is ready for the next "biggest thing" to happen with technology, or if it will be beneficial, it will happen, and people will become more dependent on it.

Technology has become a significant part of society that has been as much positive, as it's been negative. For some, the positive aspect of technology is having access to a computer and internet, as this enables faster communication than a hundred years ago. With this technology it has not opened many doors to personals life, but also towards school and work.


 
Negative views, are of those who feel technology has evolved a little too much, that it has made today's society lazy,
 



 
 
 
or even a little too ridiculous to follow.




Whichever the case may be, technology is here to stay and is being modified for the future. I just hope that it's not as ridiculous as some make it out to be...

    I think the biggest problem with technology is that with so many new gadgets and technological advances coming out and the public having more access to this stuff, we as a society are expected to move forward and progress. However, I think that technology is regressing people because it seems that most of it is for personal enjoyment, and it disconnects people from interacting with each other. I fear that the younger generations will become so technology-dependent since they will not know what life is like without technology.

    My favorite video on your blog post is the third one because it shows the ridiculousness of constantly updating technology. That reminds me, I'm still waiting on my Mactini Nano Slim. ;)
