Prompt #6

The amount that technology has advanced in my lifetime alone is astounding to me. Cell phones alone have come along way since my very first cell phone. I had a tiny little track phone. I used to have to push the number buttons more than once to get to the letter I wanted to type next. Now whenever I am holding my cell phone I am holding a small computer, gps, camera, mp3 player, gaming device, and most importantly a phone that I can make calls with. Texting has also become very popular in my lifetime and has in a way destroyed sentence structure and proper grammar. Computers are no longer connected to your home phone and the internet has been forced to speed up with the demand for information NOW! Computers can store and calculate things never dreamt of before. We are able to create a "greener" environment with the use a technology. The contributions and advances in technology are huge and they will continue to grow at outrageous rates.
