"Romeo, Romeo, where art thou Romeo". In the sixteenth century, technology was kept to a minimum, had this been today Juliet would have communicated with Romeo via mobile telephone. Technology is to me, like breathing is to life. Unlike those days, we now have loads of ways to communicate. Technology is on the land, technology is in the air, technology is at sea, technology is available whenever and wherever necessary. Telephones make communication sound and clear. Now we can even walk and talk at the same time with the advancement of cordless communication. Oh Mr. Bell, how great was your invention. Many of these new advancements in technology are effective, yet stressful in the fact that they must be understood. By many, communication is considered to be the greatest invention known to man. Imagine a life without technology; it would be like fish swimming without water It isn't possible. But one must remember; we need to control technology, technology must not control us. However, Bill Gates is a man who understands the evolution of technology, he is detested for all the riches he posses. As soon as he develops new computer programs or devices, we swoosh down to the nearest electronics store to be the first in line. We can be compared to kids rushing for the ice cream truck. Our advancements in technology - which have taken years - are remarkable. The importance of technology to our lives is far beyond words. Ideas come a dime a dozen, but they get bigger and better as the years progress.
