Technology

I believe that technology has greatly improved the understanding of individuals, in that they are more able to now express their own ideas as well as grasp what is fact and fiction among the many news reports of today. Also I have noticed that people are more able to record their own history and leave a mark on the world so that the world can remember them as they really were, anything from recounting stories in the form of mp3s to watching home videos changed to mpegs, it is all going digital now. Not only does new technology change the way we save ourselves(records) but it also changes the way we see language and use it. Text messaging is a good example as those who use it speak a sort of morse code to communicate between one another.

computers are taking over the world and it is very important to have a great understanding of them. To be hired for a great business it's extremely necessary to work a computer. I have seen many younger kids excel more in school because of there computer skills.
