How Technology Affects Us...





Today we are constantly immersed in technological advancements that promote non stop communication and instant gratification whether through hand phones, laptops or iPods. I believe that the growth of technology has negative influenced the social interactions of us because it isolates individuals from reality, hinders communication and perpetuates the concept of immediate satisfaction.

The iPod is one example. By putting in the ear buds and immersing ourselves in the music while in public, we are disconnecting ourselves from the real world. Technology also hinders personal communication, which negatively impacts our age group. Therefore, we must learn to embrace technology without allowing it to negatively impact the creation of functional adults in the society.
