blog source

A recent post from digital trends by Doug Mc Lean was rather interesting and interpreted his view on why he and so many others are dependent and addicted to technology.

It was a great source because he explained that he realized how much people are dependent on technology. For example, on August 14th 2008, there was a blackout on most of the east coast of the U.S. It was questioned, how many people actually panicked because they didn't have access to their cellphones, computers, or tvs? The world has come to depend on something that rarely existed in previous years. The term face book or myspace didn't even exist. This blog was a great example to see how the youth (college students) of the U.S. have come to be so dependent on technology.
