The Race For Technology
Cutting edge technology can make or break a nation, a company, a life. No one can escape its slow conquest. The world clapped in wonder at the marvels of black and white soundless movies, room-sized computers that could do simple math equations, and party line phones. Then the upgrading began. T.V. had sound, computers shrunk to chunky, desk sized, phones became shoe-sized portable phones. Today there are plasma screens big as walls, computers that can complete thousands of mind-boggling tasks and yet are thinner than a peanut, and tiny cell phones that can surf the web.
It seems as if everyone is in a race to acquire the latest, fastest technology. A student upgrades his computer, but is crushed when he realizes someone else got the same upgrade only with a wider screen. Another person proudly flaunts a blackberry phone only to be devastated when her friend starts texting on his iphone. A friend gets a kindle for Christmas but feels betrayed because she didn't get an ipad. Everyone wants to be with it when dealing with technology. The number of people that refuse to participate in the race for the smallest and the best gadgets is slowly dwindling.
Too much of technology posses potential threats some claim. True. People that play computer games in class or at work, facebook stalk everyone they know, or that twitter every thirty minutes are wasting valuable time. Yet, technology has benefited society in a variety of ways. Without technology there would be no communication, no quick plane rides, no emails, movies, powerpoints, and a lot of people would have much poorer health.
New advancements, inventions, and discoveries are made daily. What once started as a few humans struggling to survive in the wilderness, is now a world bustling with millions of people in a hurry to make money and upgrade their technology.
While most believe technology is essential for communication, and a variety of other purposes, occasionally even the most techno-savvy individuals fail to use technology that really matters. Laptops are great, so are ipods and cell phones, but those things only advance someone's individual lifestyle. Some fail to realize perhaps the most important technology available, home security. Home security allows people to sleep peacefully at night, knowing all their technology, is safe, but most importantly, they are safe.
