Does the technology make our world better place to live?

First welcome to mylot- hope you'll enjoy your stay here. As for the topic of the discussion, i really think that technology really does make your life better. I think that most people nowadays can barely do without things like mobile phone, computer and so on. It's like technology has become part of our everyday life.happy mylotting

Personally I like technology. If used for healing education betterment of man good it can be a great thing. In the wrong bad I think its up to the individuals conscience to guide them! :)

yes the technology makes us to live in a better life because there are a lot of work which we have to do in this world is so the technology decreases the work and increases our daily income. But there are also disadvantages but more the advantages.

yeah am sure it does and its the reason you can earn and still be in your house.

Technology can help us in many ways... if you use it correctly, of course. It brings us the comfort of the music anywhere you want it and I think its good. When you're stuck in traffic, helps you to stay out of all that crazyness and just relax... just 'till the light goes green. And by the way, welcome to MyLot ;) Happy MyLotting and have a nice day!

I like the cell phone technology today. i have a motorola q9h smartphone. I like the fact that I can get my emails and still get onthe internet with my phone when I am away from home. Things like video game systems are making the kids lazy. Since all they want to do nowadays is sit in front of a TV with a controller shoved up their a$$es! But it's good for me cuse it keeps them out of my way when I go out. But the cell phones for me a the best thing. You can use mapquest or the gps system to find your way around if you get lost. it's better than walking around with a flat screen laptop in your backpack! I do wish they would improve the technology of the cell phones. Not all web browsers work with mobile phones and it can be a pain. They need to make a mini laptop that comes with a data plan, sort of like a cell phone, which would allow you to use it the same way as your computer at home, except for printing documents of course. With a cell phone, you do occasionally run across those web pages that aren't formated for mobile devices. But something like a mini laptop, which could be the same size or even a little bigger than a cell phone,that would be perfect. And it can't be used in areas that only have a wireless connection. They would have to make it so it can work everywhere and every place you go like a cell phone that has good coverage service like AT&T. My othe favorite would have to be the gps system. I don't use one, but I think a device that gives you directions on every turn with voice command is great.

In my case definitely. Technology provides the wheelchair the enables me to leave in house, go to the bathroom (I don't walk at all and can't), and have a life in general. I also require, not want, like most folks a cell phone to be independent and safe. It lets me call my assistants when I need them, especially at night when I can't get out bed which I can't do without help. I make 100% of my money on the computer, as I'm a writer. I do lots of politics via computer and communicate with far away friends. Technology totally improves my life as a disabled person.

Yes in general it does. I think people have to mix technology with ecoliving. Inorder to have a more perfect balance. Great post! :)

yes, absolutely.The main objective of technology is to make life better.Technology therefore improves our quality of living.

i would say an better place and same time worse place to live in!!but the two always with each other, we have this new technology and lot more all the conveniece that we are looking at but what comes next is the pollution, may it be an air, noise, and water pollution!!!and also increases the criminality!!!maybe i would just say just a balance!!!happy lotting and welcome to mylot, enjoy your stay here and keep lotting...

There is always pros and cons. If the technology is helping in our life needs that it should make world a better place if not then we should think twice before inventing something. Technology make our communication faster, our destination shorter, our job easier and some times makes us a lot lazier don't you think?

Hi technology does make the world a better place to live to some extent but not totally.Technology has really changed the course of life and every thing has become handy but it separated from the mother nature.We have gots so many gadgets which made our life easier but this technology has also showed its other side. It has been use for destruction too world becomes even more beautiful and btter place if the technologys used for the harmony of the people.

Technology when handled properly can bring infinite amount of benefits and possibilities. If handled inappropriately, well spell the end of man kind. I like spiderman's quote, with great 'powers' come great responsibilities. Humans need to stop being greedy about profit, issues like the environment need to be properly considered so that technology will not work against us, but instead with us.

as per my view technology brings more advantages at the same time they are bringing more more... waste and making mankind slaves to gadgets.physical exercise is becoming less with the more technology and the waste in the body. people think that technology will decrease the time for wok done at the same time mankind is wasting the double time and losing peacefulness by run around hospitals.

yep but they are also makin' us handicap.
