I remember asking my mom a few
years back what would we do without technology? You hear this question all the
time but the older generation laughs at that question because they lived
through college and most of their lives without most things that we have now a
days. Technology is incredible and has completely changed how the world
functions. We can communicate through multiple different organized programs and
platforms. This makes it so much easier for us to be able to communicate in a
much easier manner with family members or friends from across the world. This
process of using the technology that we have now has made communication
quicker, easier and can even provide visual face to face contact with people thousands
miles away.
“Technology
innovations change the way customers think and behave. From the time our
smartphones wake us in the morning to the last tweet of the night, our brains
are wired. Along with this change comes great competitive advantages.” It’s so
crazy to think about how much we rely on our smartphones. Technology has gone
through the roof in the past five years and you can pretty much do any day to
day thing that you need on a device that can fit into your hand. You can work
from it, do school work, find restaurants, directions, communicate with anyone.
It’s pretty incredible to see how technology will always be on an uphill grind
bringing more and more ideas to increase the potential and capacity of the
technological uses.
It amazes me how much things have
changed throughout the last century. “People used to be valued for knowing a
trade. Then came the industrial revolution and those skills became
devalued. Machines took over physical
labor and most people either did simple, repetitive tasks or managed those who
did.” For how amazing technology is, there definitely is some cons such as
diminishing the connection that comes from communicating with people face to
face and having machines replace physical labor.
