How Media Technologies Have Changed Society



Technology has changed our lives in so many ways it is hard to perceive. If you look in the field of medicine alone, technological advances have allowed doctors to treat diseases and illness that were otherwise at one time fatal. And for those us who love to shop, the internet is a field of dreams for us. We can purchase everything from a pencil to a penthouse without ever leaving the comforts of our chair. Technological advances has increased response times for emergency personnel and allows them to trace our call even if we are unable to state our location. When it comes to the computers, every facet of our lives has some type of computer involved, cars, traffic signals, appliances, and the list goes on. When the internet went public, that was the best thing to happen to us since sliced bread. However, technology does have a downside. Since more items contain computers, repairing these can be costly. Technology also has allowed those with ulterior motives to steal our identities and wreak havoc on our lives. It really depends on if you want to focus on the good or the bad.
