Technology has been present in our world for as long as I can remember. 20 years ago technology existed more simply and people didn't rely on it as much. But as the years go by, we become more and more technologically advanced and the world becomes more and more dependent on it. Not to say this is a good or bad thing, it can be both. There may be some positives to this new technology, but there can also be some negatives. The use of technology is almost impossible to avoid in today's society, but there is a way to avoid living dependent on it and form a healthy lifestyle that still includes technology. Our society is becoming more and more technologically advanced every year and this progress can be seen as beneficial to our society as a whole. First, technology is helping us communicate in ways we weren't able to communicate before. Communication is becoming faster and easier thanks to advancements such as SMS, email, Skype, Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. These communication devices allow people to stay connected to others and see what is going on in their lives. With a quick message we can reach someone in seconds and it's simple. Email allows us to send messages to a group of people quickly and efficiently. And Skype allows us When we don't see our friend who lives hundreds or thousands of kilometers away, Skype allows us to reach that person in a few minutes at no cost. It's easy to stay connected to people and know what's going on in other people's lives through social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. Technology helps people stay connected and communicate quickly and efficiently every day. Technology can also be considered... at the heart of the paper... in our lives, like time, money and resources. Technology is often abused and abused, but in most cases things can also be avoided. People want more and more from technology and every time there is a new update, people have to have it. They are abusing technology by demanding more and more instead of being satisfied with what they already have. And when people finally get that new updated version, they don't care about it. People are very careless with technology and just throw it around like it's nothing. People also abuse technology in the sense that they do not use it for the right purposes. For example, the Internet. The Internet was created to search for information and stay connected with others, but people use it for evil purposes such as Internet bullying. All these abuses and misuses can be easily avoided if you try..
