Every minute there something that needs our attention. Email, voicemail, text message, facebook, the never ending list. The new generation has grown up being able to watch TV, update facebook, email on their laptops and chat to friends on the phone all at the same time (Multitasking). This is how technology has affected how we interact with other peoples.
We can say that our social lifestyles of today's center on the cell phone, it seems texting has become the normal way of communication. Texting has affected the phone's ability to be a social link between two people. Texting takes time, going back and forth, time that could have used to dial up your friend and talk to them, saving you a lot of fingers movement.
The Internet has changed our lives with television viewing. Just as television changed the way that radio was listened to, the Internet has changed the way that we watch television. We can wait a day or two and watch the same program with no commercial on the internet, or if you wait a little longer you can watch on Netflix and see a complete season in one day, commercial free!
The internet can be a good or a bad thing and needs to be used in moderation, like everything in life excess is never a good thing.
