Interaction
Technology is more than an abstract concept associated with advanced tools
and systems used by businesses and end-users for convenience and
automation of complex tasks.
It also shapes the way societies and people behave, grow, evolve, and
develop, both within their own lives and in their relationships with others.
While technology has developed over the millennia that humans have
existed –
from simple tools such as the wheel, irrigation systems and chariots, to
complex tools such as computers, cell phones,
Internet and airplanes - the last century has seen an explosion in technology
that has influenced subtle but crucial changes in how humans see the world
and interact with others.
Specifically, the Internet and mobile devices (i.e. smartphones, tablet
computers, mobile gaming systems, etc.) have radically altered the way
people interact with each other.
since one of the major impacts of technology is the optimization
of communication systems in the form of telecommunications and
networking.
