Effect of technology on communication
21st century is the century of all modern new technologies and is the era of a new communication level. Technology has great effects of how people communicate with eachother. For me, I agree that it effects people in a good way, but it also has it's negative side. Let me explain the reasons that I think so.
First of all, there are 7.125 billion people living in the world. Communicating through internet is something everybody use to keep connected no matter how far they are. One example would be facebook. Mostly everyone uses this new tech to be friends with their family, friends, colleagues, classmates by posting pictures, sharing info and updating statuses. Another example could be skype, where anybody could talk to eachothber by looking at themselves. This is a great way to keep in touch with people with distance.
Secondly, not only do these people chat and video call, a lot of other things are there to be utilized. Other than interacting with people, we also share and get information in a short amount of time. Long time ago people used to order newspapers, listen to radio or gather up to see the news but thanks to technology we are now able to get as much information that we need, right in our cell phones, tablets and smartphones. Televisions have also updated to smart tv where the remote control is not even needed.
Even though technology has impacted so much in our everyday lives, it also has it's negatives. People connect with their internet so much, there is rarely face-to-face interaction. Children prefer to play video games rather than playing outside. Teenagers spend their time on their physical core looks like.
But the again, technology has both it's effects and deffects of people's lives and how the impact our daily tasks. If we keep a balance between these impacts, we are sure to live a happy and successful life.
