How does technology affect society?--Computers

How does technology affect society?

Technology affects society because it is constantly changing, and its changing us to. Some of the changes have been difficult to deal with. In the future, these changes are going to be happening faster, with less time to prepare. Technology has in turn shaped human society. Advancing technology has changed our society, transforming how we live our daily lives.

Some of my favorites is cell phones and the cool things that you can create on them and do on them, like texting! I really like the new GPS systems out, I think that they help a lot of people out, yes they can get you very lost if you don't know how to work one but after you figure them out they really are very useful. Another good technology thing that is out is the Ipod or the Itouch :). I think those are the greatest thing ever, you can download music with out having to by a CD disc or only having the chose between 20 songs, you can put multiple songs on there and however many you want. I really think that these type of things benefit you a lot, because if you needed help or where lost the cell phone would come in great handy. The ipod is really helpful when you go on trips or its something to keep kids well occupied. The GPS is really helpful especially for kids that are going off to collage and on long trips, they really do help out a lot.

For the web 2.0 and the other advancements in technology, I think are awesome :)!! You can do a lot more things with the advancements then what you can do with the older software. Like we have been using blogger and its very funny when you just get to stop and take the time to find out what all it can really do, its reminds you a lot like facebook but with just a few different features. Another one that i thought was pretty fun was poll daddy, we got to make are own polls and put them in are blogs and people came in and voted on them witch it was pretty fun to see witch one was ahead and what other peoples opinions where. One more that I liked was the voki guys... we made them talked and got to do a bunch of different things with them we recorded through are phones witch was very funny when you herd them talk. So some of the stuff that we have done in computer class is very good technology and I could use later on and others I probably wont use much at all.
