Jean-Michel Martinod Revision: Technology New Opportunity or Disaster for our Generation

Our generation is the generation of evolution. How now people get more involved in new things and ideas. For example, no one thought that someday people would enjoy to stay in continuous communication with other people through the new tools of technology. I would say that because we use innovation as a tool we are evolving into a new generation of human beings. In a way technology is a good thing, but as we know not everything is perfect.

There are some things that this new generation is getting used to and is turning into a generation of comfort. People are relying especially on technology in order to get ahead in life. Instead of going to a store and buying a movie, you can just order it online or download it and watch it on your computer. The experience of going to a store and just having human contact, is something technology can replace. This face to face communication what our new generation is losing. If you stay at home you lose what the basic human contact is about.

Technology has also brought some advantages. Global communication has opened new doors for new opportunities. As a new generation we depend on specific technology, communication is key. For example I can now communicate with my family in Ecuador and I am happy to hear my little sister’s voice on the phone every time I call. Yet again technology has opened this door in order for me to be communicated with my family.

Technology has altered the way we view the world, opening new doors for generations to come. Technology has its advantages and disadvantages, it is our decisions as human beings to see how and for what we use technology. Let’s just hope the generations that are heading this way don’t turn into technology freaks.
