tech reflect Sep.2

1-obviously many things influenced the start of the computer. first of all the word computer was fist used to describe a person that preformed calculations. but of course humans make many mistakes so 2 British guys imagined the construction of a mechanical devise that can do all this computing without the mistakes. and then 100 and some odd years later the computer was born for the same reason.

*the automobile and the television were very influential inventions.

Lets start off with the Automobile, and that's not only the car, its the train others. The invention of the car lead to so many other wonderful inventions like the airplane and the motor boat. These help people in an unfathomable way, not only do they get to travel to new places and learn new things, but it makes for a more diverse and culturally aware world. it makes traveling safer, and faster, and with the invention you can get more stuff done in less time. one negative aspect is the fact that life moves at a faster pace and you get lazy and dependant on automobiles, but i believe that the benefits outweigh the harms, because though we become dependent it changed the world in a positive way, and its the humans choice wither they want to be lazy about it or not.

next is the television. The television in my opinion is equally positive and negative. Its positives are, that the T.V has many souses of news and educational programs which has helped educate the common folk that wouldn't necessarily pick up a book or news paper to read the current events or other info, and not only that but we can get news from across the world within a couple of minutes. another is it serves as a way of relaxation (when used properly). the negatives are that people can spend way to much time watching tv, watching useless programs and just become lazy, another is that is becomes some peoples only souse of information and alot of the times the TV new programs can be really bias. many Americans revolve their lives around TV, which is very unhealthy. The tv is a wonderful invention when used properly but when not, it can be a very dangerous and negative invention.

lastly there is the Computer. Like the others in connects to you the rest of the world and makes a stronger global society.it can be a good souse of information. the negative much like the others in the laziness factor. but i defiantly say the computer is a better inveton and its pro's defiantly outweigh the con's.
