The advancement of technology can be quite spoiling. With word processors, the internet and web messaging, our daily lives are much smoother and less stressful when we use computers and other electronic devises that categorize our schedules and plans better than our own memory.

  In feed, the feed is designed to think for them and do all of the work. Now, the internet today has everything on it. Even things that are at the library. People turn to the dictionary to find the meaning of something, but now they're using the computer. In feed when Violet says a word that Titus doesn't know, all he has to do is look it up through his feed and there he has it.

About 23 million households in North America have a broadband connection, and over the next five years, that number is likely to triple.

  23 million, that's a lot of people with internet connection. Just like in feed everyone has a feed. It's become a necessity in peoples lives.

The idea of having the World Wide Web with me wherever I go has two sides. I do enjoy being able to read my e-mail, talk to people, and lately, check the online Facebook.
- Lany Miller on 09 Feb 11
  
  It's great to be able to check email wherever you are by your phone, iPods, or iPads. But some of the technology seems to have gone a little too far.

I already find myself waking up in the morning and immediately heading to my computer to see who left me an instant message or what new friend is stalking me on the Facebook ... so what will happen if I have the internet with me at all time? The habit of being online will turn into a necessity, and perhaps that is not such a good thing.

shopping online is useful to be able to buy things from different places you are not able to get to. there are more items online then there are at the store

there may be more options to buying online and may seem easyer, but in regards to feed it takes away the human to human natrual interaction.it can be good but not at the expence that your ONLY buying online. in addition it can have a lot of credit card trouble.... just sayin.

This is similar to the feed because people can shop with out going to a store and now that the internet is on many phones it is possible to shop online pretty much whenever you want

Now you can walk around town with your cell phone tucked away in your pocket or briefcase and a tiny headset tucked into your ear.
- Hank von GnarSlayer on 09 Feb 11
  
  This is a scary thought because in order to use these headsets, people seem to be devoting more of their attention to technology they can hear in their ear, rather than using that ear of theirs for its original purpose- to hear people and nature around them! Do you think that it is safe to walk around with people asking questions or yelling in your ear while you go about your day in town? While you drive? While you use the furnace? While you use knives in the kitchen? When you're making fires?

How did we ever manage without personal computers, the Internet, cell phones, iPods and 24 hour cable news?
- stephen richards on 04 Feb 11
  
  To some people, like Titus, they cannot understand how a world before technology could have functioned, and why some one now would choose to use an outdated and slower technology. in the story Titus is confused when Violet takes out a pen and paper and begins to write, "[he] looked at her funny. 'You write?' [He] said. 'With a pen?'" His confusion as to why she would choose to use a slower more difficult way of technology is not dissimilar to how teenagers today look when someone uses an outdated technology, which M.T. Anderson uses to suggest that we are not very far off from this world.

An increased use of technology is causing people to become less capable of carrying on a social interaction with another person.

Young People Cop to It: Technology Is Bad for Us - ABC News - 2 views

shared by Ryan Clarke on 16 Feb 11 - No Cached

Time-waster: "Technology is the key to procrastination," said Kenny Kobetsky, 14. Eighty percent of the class said they had missed sleep because of playing on the Internet, 50 percent said they had forgotten to do homework for the same reason. "The Internet is just so tantalizing," said Nick Gregov, 14. "I actually think McDonald's is healthier than my computer," added Blake Billiet, 13. Though the students did admit that the Web and cell phone can save time that used to be burned up driving to the store or library, few felt that these gains exceeded the many hours wasted on text or Web surfing.

technology is just easier to access and has more entertainment on it that doesn't mean it is by itself bad for us because kids will always pick something more fun than homework because homework is boring. if you had the chocie between having a party or hanging out with friends and playing a game outside or doing homework i wouldn't pick the homework.
