Response: Program or Be Programmed

I agree with the article that technology has rushed us as a society.  Most of the people I know including myself check our phones constantly.  We are so used to having complete access to internet that we expect it at every second of the day.  No longer does my generation wait for dial up or letters to come in the mail, we get internet access at the touch of a screen.  So we don't think about what were saying or put a good amount of thought into things.  In the article the author talks about having time to think because we don't have real time access, which is true.  However I believe that we are somewhat taking advantage of our time more.  We don't "waste" time waiting on letters to come we can have thousands of conversations in the same amount as one letter exchange.  I do believe that some people live too much virtually which takes away from their "real" lives, but in that moment that is that person's "real" life.  Technology and life in any sense are all what every individual person makes it.  If someone loves relying on their phone and living no where else but in the internet then so be it, same to someone who doesn't believe in technology.
