issue 18


The evolution of technology has made a huge impact in our society. From the invention of the wheel in the 4th millennium BC to now the invention of such things as the ipad have made life much more simpler for individuals. These evolutionary inventions have met their purpose of making life much more simpler. I have been able to see the change over the decades. I remember when I was 10 and it was difficult to move your self around in unfamiliar cities, there was a time when I was on a road trip with my family and I really wanted krispy kreme donuts but we had no clue where the closest one, I told my mom that soon there was going to be a phone so smart that it would be able to tell you where the closest Krispy Kreme was from your current location and indeed that did occur. I feel like people are more dependent on technology to perform tasks but that does not mean people are brainless. The newer generations are just lazier because they know a simpler way of performing tasks, it’s as if they we have everything at the reach of our fingertips. The evolution of technology does have a great positive side to as well as a negative side. Technology is great but it does make people us dependent and it makes me wonder what our generation would do if  technology was to be taken away from us, what would we do.
