ESSAY PREVIEW

How did technology affect us? Did it affect us in a positive or a

negative way? Technology has both positive and negative effects, it’s
plainly about how people choose to use it. Throughout these years,
technology has been a great advancement for our country and it
helped us develop in many ways that we can’t even count.
Technology has its advantages as well as its disadvantages, some of
the advantages are that it makes connecting to people much easier,
simpler and in addition, it makes our everyday life simpler in ways
people 50 years ago never imagined it would. Not only that, it makes
life much more fun and convenient. Now, tackling disadvantages,
technology has led us humans into creating weapons of mass
destruction and turned us into mindless irresponsible creatures who
depend on machines to build everything and get everything for us,
forgetting the consequences of health issues such that affect us
personally and the ecosystem as a whole. Like everything out there,
needless to say, technology has advantages and disadvantages, and
we shouldn't forget that the advantages overshadow the
disadvantages. Let us not forget that it helped us know achieve and
made cultural interactions much easier.
Technology has changed every aspect in our lives; it changed our
means of travel, interacting with people as well as food preparation!
Wherever you look you can find a transportation device, when you go
out you can find a car, a bus or even a plane flying over your house,
almost everyone in the world uses one of these on a daily basis,
whether he was going to the grocery store or work. The Internet,
which was invented due to technology, helps us connect to people
around the world in a matter of seconds. Connecting to people has
never been e...

...top or people sitting in cafes with their laptops. It's extremely sad
how technology demolished any sense of human interaction. About 10
years ago, we didn’t have access to social networks or all of what the
internet that currently serves youngsters. Back in the day, if you
wanted to meet new people you had to go to school or to parks to find
people your age who can be possible friends.
I personally believe that technology is the key to success; it made
countries all around the world grow from what some people thought to
be uneducated into more developed and modernized countries.
Without technology we wouldn’t have gotten this far, we wouldn’t have
a simple and convenient life or even met new people from around the
world. Technology is what everyone needs for a better life, but in order
for it to benefit, we need to use it in the correct manner and not exploit
it.

Technology has changed modern society drastically, both positively

and negatively. Technology has influenced every aspect of our life,
making it simpler but not necessarily better. Albert Einstein was
concerned about the advancement of technology. "I fear the day that
technology will surpass our human interaction."1 Undoubtedly, what
has changed the most are communication, the spread of information,
and how business is practiced. Consequently, practically everyone
knows how to use a computer, connect to the Internet, or use a
smartphone. This is demonstrated by the way the Internet is used
daily by millions of people to communicate, to sell, advertise, retrieve,
and share information. Thanks to the Internet, information from
anywhere in the world is at our fingertips. As a result, the
advancement of technology has changed our life in many ways
including; sharing of information, communication, business, education,
social interaction, simplifying everyday tasks, replacing basic skills
and jobs.

The Internet has made access to information easier. Information is

stored efficiently and organized on the Internet. For example, instead
of going to our local library, we can use Internet search engines.
Simply by doing a search, we get thousands of results. The search
engines use a ranking system to help us retrieve the most pertinent
results in top order. Just a simple click and we have our information.
Therefore, we can learn about anything, immediately. In a matter of
moments, we can become an expert.

Society has seen many benefits and opportunities from technology.

Examples of the list of the benefits and opportunities include: keeping
in touch with our friends and family, making new friends, learning from
a distance, and much mor...

...ive for businesses because it helps them make more money and
serve customers on time, but it is a negative for those who are losing
their jobs.

Society has been impacted both negatively and positively by

technology. As a result, every aspect of our lives has been influenced
by technology. Hence, life is easier, yet it has taken away some of the
enjoyment. For example, remember the days of less stress and more
personal interaction, when there were no online messages, no emails,
social media or cell phones. We have become excessively dependent
on technology. As a result, we need to rely less on technology even
though it has made learning fun, and business, daily tasks, work,
travel, shopping, making new friends and staying in touch easier. In
conclusion, technology has a lot of benefits, yet it could take over our
lives and become our worst enemy if we aren't careful.
