      I think it has to be embraced and used for the benefit of humanity, there is little point ignoring it as it is pervasive. Technology has the power to make all of our lives better.

      I think it has been great the world is a smaller place although I still like to switch all electronic devices off with my parents and talk. We have a room in my parents house and just some seats, there is no television and we would sit there an discuss the matters of the world and anything else and engage in some debate. With amazing technology at our fingertips the it is also important to discuss and be social amongst our peers.

      I think it’s amazing, and hope it continues to get better! It helps with everything from washing machines (which make your parent’s lives a LOT easier) to advanced scientific equipment, which allows us to do research which would have seemed impossible 100 years ago. But “with great power comes great responsibility”, and we have a responsibility to make sure we use technology for good things.
