Technology. Whether its phones, computers, social network sites, ipods, playbooks, whatever, people can't seem to stay away from them for longer then ten minutes. Twenty years ago people had no idea how to use technology, half of it wasn't even invented and now people can't wait to get their hands on the newest iphone, or ipad. Why be on one website when you can be on ten. I don't see why people need to be on facebook, twitter, stumble upon, pinterest, tumbler and all that like really, what would we do if it weren't for technology? Maybe go play outside like everyone else did before technology came along? Technology is good in many ways but I think a lot of people just waste their time and money on it. Whenever you buy the "newest" gadget, there will always be something even better coming out next month. Who needs home phones, phone books, board games, or even normal books to read, you can do it all on apple products, e readers, phones, etc. When our generation has grand-children will they even learn how to write? Or will they just learn to type at age two or three.
