ReplyDeleteThe future looks bright to say the least. I am still fearful however that technology will begin to take away from the quality of life experienced in the simpler things...
ReplyDeleteAs interesting as these things are, I cannot help but to be a tad bit intimidated by what the future of technology holds. The thought of not driving a car, smart phone correcting vision, and swiping my finger to transfer information from one display to another is definitely a strange thought. What will happen to all the things we know to good, wholesome fun? I am sure that our parents and grandparents were having the same ideas about the things that are oh-so normal to us today...
ReplyDeleteGreat post, the advances in technology is kind of scary but its lets us know that the world will continue to move and function with or without us. Therefore we must contribute and stay ahead of the curve in order to not fall behind.
