How Technology Has Changed Our Lives

In an ever-changing society, there is always pressure to accomplish tasks faster. People every day seek to make their lives simpler, live more efficiently, and in turn get more out of the day. Such emerging technologies have helped us make things easier on us in everyday life. When is the last time you saw an infomercial and thought hey I could use that? Consequently, communication has changed and is constantly changing, accelerating the world around us. Just think about how far we have come, and has ever-changed our pace of life. Technology is fueling our way of life, making everyday tasks faster and easier to do. In turn, this gives us more time to do more with the time in the day.

I think that new technology needs to be prevalent in our daily lives. Modern medicine has made so many advancements because of new technology. I do think in our daily, personal lives, that we are way too dependent, but with new technology, it can help save lives or make better structures, we need to be dependent on advancements. People have become addicted to the phones or tablets. They cannot socialize without constantly looking down at their phone. Some even use their cell phones in inappropriate places or times. Everything around a cell phone user, seems to be invisible to them. They do not seem to have time for others.

Technology is defined as machinery and equipment developed from the application of scientific knowledge. Its original use was meant solely for the service of humans, however overtime it has evolved into something much different. What was originally meant to be an assisting piece of machinery has changed almost every aspect of our culture. The way we think, communicate, lie, and even love has been impacted by the use of technology, and all of this is has made for interesting pieces of literature. In pieces such as Her and I, Robot, we see the evolution of robots and artificial intelligence into a more empathetic and humanlike creatures. This gradual change in our views of robots overtime speaks volumes to the evolution of technology. Technology in literature has become a reflection of human beings themselves, mirroring the very qualities of ourselves that make us human. By looking at the personality that technology takes on in literature, we can greater understand the aspects of ourselves that truly make us human.

With time the mind has expanded and has created things our society could have never imagined were possible. In the last century technology has flourished due the changes in the way the mind works. These new technological inventions have proved to be very helpful in day-to-day basis. Children utilize computers, cell phones, and television to their learning advantage. The way children are developing is very different than children of past generations because of the new technology they are growing up with (Taylor). As the use of technology increases amongst all age groups, there is evidence that shows it impacts children intellectually and socially.

Imagine living inside an invisible bubble, secluded from the outside world. You can see the surrounding environment, but there is a clear barrier that obstructs you from your family, your friends; the world even. As you would assume, communicating could get a little hard in this bubble. Although that analogy may seem a bit dramatic, there’s no denying that over the course of time, technology has made its mark on society in many different aspects of life, communication being one of them. So when asked to spend twenty-four hours without social media, you can imagine how frustrating it was as a creature of habit being unable to utilize the websites and apps that I would normally use on a daily basis. In turn, I was very inattentive throughout the day, as I couldn’t listen to study music or keep myself entertained, I was unable to communicate with my family, and I wasn’t very productive.

Over the years technology has changed our lives. Today there are kids getting cell phones, laptops, iPads, etc… that thirty years ago it was new technology and that it was for business use. In the last ten or so years cell phones have become very popular and a norm. Cell phones have made it easier for people to be and stay in contact with each other rather than have a land line phone. With cell phones becoming more and more popular, there will be issues that will have to be fixed or solutions to help prevent anything bad to happen. One issue that is a real problem right now with cell phones is sexting. Sexting started in 2005 and now has become the most popular thing for teens and young adults to do (The Evolution of Cell Phone Design Between 1983-2009). Sexting is when someone sends, receives, or forwards pictures of nudity and sexual messages through texting (“Sexting”). Most of the sexting is among minors which is illegal and they can be punished for it. Unfortunately it has been going out of control, more and more teens are doing it. So parents need to understand why sexting is not good and look at how they can prevent it from getting worse. Parents need to help these teens and young adults to understand that sexting is bad. It can also hurt them in the future, so some solutions that can help with this are, parents talking to schools about sexting, informing their teens on what sexting is, and the best solution out of these three is parents need to get the word out

Technology has become the new way to communicate in today’s millennium generation. Individuals are using phones as a part of their everyday lives. Apps and online resources have been greatly used to communicate with others. According to the author’s, technology could be the reason for building or ruining relationships. Whether or not technology could be building relationships, I believe technology is destroying communication between friends and family. Due to technology, relationships are being negatively affected because it is causing individuals to lose physical communication skills and bonding time with friends and family.

Everyday for the past nine years of my life I have slowly been letting technology brainwash me. It all started with my first cell phone in fourth grade, the phone was a gift and it was just another toy to play with. At the time cell phones did not do much and had little purpose for a fourth grader. Similarly to a drug, I used the cell phone periodically, but as time progressed and the product quality increased I started getting addicted. This is not only for cell phones but with every piece of technology like televisions, computers, tablets, and many more ingenious pieces of technology that are on the market today. The point is, no one is just living anymore, but practically digitally living where technology is now a crutch, it is addicting, and more than anything it is powerful.

It is amazing how everyone’s life is changing by using technology. Technology by definition means, the branch of knowledge that deals with the creation and use of technical means and their interrelation with life, society, and the environment, drawing upon such subjects as industrial arts, engineering, applied science, and pure science.(web). Now a days people use different kinds of technology that brings it to our life like cellphone, iPod, laptop, mp3, and all of the devices create a convenient and comfort for every individual lives. As Technology is updating every day, every second it is effecting lives of people live and changing the pace of everything that relater to humans routines live. One of the most important thing that technology is changing is the way everyone communicates. Technologies create more powerful and effective ways of communication. People are getting used to a new way to be alone together while they are together. Conversation in number and quality decrease as technology replaces in human interaction

Could you imagine life without your cell phone? I know I couldn’t. My daily routine is controlled by my cell phone; from the alarm clock on my phone that wakes me up to the last Instagram post I check before I close my eyes. I couldn’t fathom the thought of not having my phone (not a phone but, my phone!) with me every second of the day. My life would probably shatter in to pieces. Without a phone I don’t think my family, friends, or I would be able to function everyday properly.

When we use the computer we don’t typically think about how it has evolved into what we have today. The computer has come a long way and it is hard to think about how life existed before computers. Before computers, humans had to do many things by themselves. Many complicated and advanced mathematical calculations were done by hand and took months if not years. Technology has luckily advanced which has given way for humans to be used in more productive ways and in ways that have made our society better. With this research paper I hope the reader will better understand the history of the computer and have a greater appreciation for humanity’s evolvement with the computer and how much of a blessing the current computer is to our daily lives.

In this era, the applications of science have become ubiquitous to our lives. Whether in cell phones, cancer screening, or hybrid cars, we tend to overlook the underlying trials, perspirations, and excitement of discovery that led to these indispensable inventions. I have had an avid interest in science for as long I can remember. I have always been interested in why things work, how they work, and how innovations can further be improved and made more efficient. I love science because it has to power to explain everything around us. It allows us to know where objects originate, why roses are red, how airplanes fly, and so much more! I have a great interest in math, science, technology, computers, and above all learning. The opportunities for imagination and application are boundless, and nothing would excite me more than applying science to solve today’s problems.

Technology has changed our way of life as human beings; it changed the way we understand the act of work has changed the way we interact with people. Technology is not just a computer or television, its engineering science and in science their goal is to make progress, to understand everything there is to know about us, our planet and beyond. However, the way we understand and experience this concept, it’s just there to makes our lives more efficient. Technology is never the end of the concept. New equipment will be released, and then refined endlessly. Not even when we start running out of resources, because we would have recovered parts to build new technologies, we will create a new technology that could refine the existing resources, and even find the same resources on another planet. Technology now is a concept we cannot survival without; the average person needs technology to eat, entertainment, cooking and do many other daily functions.

Growing up in a low income family was miserable. The small two story six-hundred square foot house was home to four families which consisted of father, mother, son or daughter. There were no English speakers in the house except for my sister and I. Cartoon Network was the most popular network and I was finally able to watch it for the first time. Some words were still not being processed in my brain but I started understanding how they were used. When I was able to use a computer it was like opening my mind to how modern technology impacts our lives. That’s when my fascination for technology grew. I wanted to believed there was more that we could do with technology. Zoids, Gundam, and Pacific Rim showed me how much dedication people put into these great creations and I believed in myself to hopefully one day make these creations from dream to reality. I watched how these robots helped people they were seen as modern marvels and the pilots of these suits are seen as heroes.

Technology affects our lives in a major way. It is hard to go anywhere and not see the changes technology has bought to people now in year 2015. It is hard to even imagine life without technology. It is hard to imagine life without technology because whether it has been in its simplest form technological advances have been being introduced to humanity since the invention of the wheel. Today technology has helped us save time and helps those who use it to complete tasks easier and more efficiently. And saving time and being able to complete task more efficiently is paramount in today’s society where being able to operate as lean as possible is a major priority, if not the top priority. Technology is one of the major reasons businesses, both small and large, can function as well as they do in a rapid and agile manner. Just think about how technology affects many jobs today compared to one-hundred years ago, and not even that long ago, maybe even thirty years ago. Technology itself makes life easier, and makes task that used to be stringent and
