Hello, my name is Katie. I am new to blogger.com and I have been thinking bout the way technology is used today as well as how it will be used in the future. At this point in time, technology is a very important aspect of our everyday life. Technology is used at job sites, at schools, at home, etc... I know that I, myself, use technology pretty much every day. Technology is basically a necessity for my lifestyle.
I use technology to do homework, stay in touch with my friends, look up information I hadn't previously known, and so on. Just walking into my house, I see several technological devices such as a television, a DVD player, a digital clock, a foot massager, a laptop, and a phone. These are devices that are used on a daily basis in my house. I've been learning about computers since I was in the first grade. It seems to me that if technology continues to grow at the rate that it is currently, then technology will eventually take over the jobs that are occupied by humans right now. I use to consider technology as a good resource for people, but now that I think more about it I've come to realize that it could cause several people to lose their jobs. Especially in factories and what not.
Although certain technological devices are used for the well being of us humans, it can be terrifying to think that something intended to be so useful could in fact ruin the lives of many people. As long as everyone realizes that creating a device that can do his or her job for him or her, could in fact cause him or her to lose his or her job, become broke and as a result, homeless, then they will realize that some technological advancements may be better off undiscovered.
