Written on February 9th, 2019
Nowadays, there’s nothing that we can do in a day without technology. Either we realize it or not, we live in a world where technology is being our friendly friend. After we wake up in the morning until we go to bed again, nothing can be done without technology.
Technology is a system or something that is made to make people’s life easier in every possible aspect. Many aspects in this world are well-run because of technology.
Basically, technology can be found in many aspects of our life, such as transportation, education, financial transactions, medical examinations, entertainment industries, food production, agriculture, poultry, engineering, machinery, and many more. But most of us usually relate technology with the Internet and communication.
In terms of communication and the Internet, technology is like the two-sided coin. It has the good sides and also the bad sides at the same time. Technology has made our communication much better than what we had long time ago.
With technology especially the Internet, we can reach our family or friends who live far from us so fast and easily. Also, by using the Internet, we can have broad knowledge of something that we’re interested in. We can also learn many new things related to our educational background on the Internet.
Technology is also useful to finish our work in an effective way. If we use a typewriter, imagine how long it is to get our work done. But now, with technology, we can finish our work fast and easily by using computers and printers. Nowadays, many technology companies compete to make an interesting platform or application (app) that will satisfy the users with a lot of benefits.
There are so many platforms and apps that are useful in communication, education, news, entertainment, lifestyle, health, financial transactions, and transportation to make our life easier and more effective.
Besides the fact that technology is really useful for us, apparently it also has the bad sides. You know, people nowadays become more individual and selfish because of their gadgets. Their social life becomes imperfect by the appearance of technology.
People tend to look at their gadgets anytime and anywhere, so that they missed the chance to socialize with people around them. People get addicted to gadgets and social media. They tend to waste their time by spending so much time in front of the gadgets.
The sad truth about that is sometimes they get stressed because by seeing social media, they compare their life with others too often and forget to live their own life. Besides that, technology can bring a new level of criminality to society, such as cyber deceptions, prostitution, bank robbery, and so on.
That’s why we should use our gadgets and technology wisely.
