I'm addicted to technology. It's so convenient that you find yourself depending on it. I get online everyday to check up with everything that I have left done the day before. I love my laptop and it's great. I also love my psp and PS3. I mean technology is great and I wold love to have the money to get the latest stuff too.

Too much is not good at all. I can say that,i am addicted to mylot that i can stay up to 4 hours in here. Maybe,not the computer itself,but with the site. One gadget that i can't live without is my mobile. I always try to make sure that it is with me wherever i go and whatever i do. It is the best gadget for me,to communicate with my loved ones and took pictures wherever i go.

sorry but you will find most of us who are on the net are addicted to it and mylot too and also finding mylot has saved my sanity because the only reason I am in this retirement center is we became homeless when my son lost his job and we were evicted. so sometimes addiction can be good for ones health. lol.I still get six hours sleep and also make enough from mylot to pay my internet bill each month.I was lost until my son got my computer and monitor out of storage. Now I can listen to music and mylot and keep in touch with my friends so this place does not feel just like a prison anymore.

I am certainly addicted to technology, I spend all day on the computer searching for stuff that has been newly released and looked cool. I would spend all night if I could. I think it's fascinating what people can come up with their spare time.

I am extreamely addicted to technology. I have such a problem with it. I am addicted to my ac, tv, computer, use to be cell phone but got rid of that, my radio, my ipod, my dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. We use a lot of machines and technology every single day.

I do use most of the technology. My meaning of addiction in terms of technology would be someone who is obsessed of getting latest computer, games, mobile etc. The usage of one gadgets does not make some one addicted. I think you are saying this because of the time your friend spends on his computer. Some people are really interested in sitting in front of the computer and doing their own kind of work. It could not be the technology addiction but the addiction of what is he actually doing in the computer. It could be some social networking site he is addicted to or some application.

I use the computer at the office just to browse the internet and other office work, whereas at home I can relax watching tv, without it all our lives today might be felt empty

when people say they are not addicted to technology, they are the big liars. Indeed there is no one in this world, who ignore to use technology. Tell me, what are the technology?, we use technology even to get ready for the food. I am one of those addicted ones, i use computer, cell phones, iPod, and many more. And if i don't use this technolong for a minute i feel like i have wasted my life for a year.

Yes I think a lot of us are and count me in too lol! The thing with technology is that it catches people's interest. One internet connection is better than owning a normal library since it literally connects you with the world and it's just amazing technology. Technology makes life more interesting because there is so much it can do for us, entertainment being one of the best uses. I am completely addicted to the internet and mobile phones myself. It's that feeling of connection with the world that makes me at ease with life if I loose connection for a day I go mad and have to find an internet cafe close to where I live - they are not as crowded as they used to be. Why? Because everybody already has a connection in their own homes and many of them are just as obsessed as I am. I think it's dangerous for our health but what can we do? It's what my life is made up of - switching on the computer when I wake and switching it off when I sleep. I'm glad I wasn't born 100 years ago!
