Technology

So why is it that society is now so dependant on technology? How did we ever survive without it? Can you remember the last time you used a typewriter or perhaps didn't have your cell phone in your pocket? I can't.

Isn't that sad? I don't know about everyone else, but I can't go a day without checking my e-mail, cell phone messages, texting or just surfing the web. I had a challenge for one of my classes last semester: Go one week without your favorite piece of technology, whether it was a laptop, cell phone, iPOD, etc. I couldn't do it. I had to use my computer for class because professors want everything typed. I use my cell phone every day to let my family know I'm alive. I probably could have gone without television, but then again, no.

What do you think? Could you go one week without your favorite technology item? What about one day? Go ahead, try it. I dare you.
