I want to start off by saying that I, honestly am really addicted to being on my computer. I can literally stare deep into the eyes of my computer for hours, sometimes not having anything left to do but making it my job to find something, listening to music, reading sports articles, finding some type of game, it's always something new. Once I actually realize that I have nothing left to do is usually when I begin to get off, it's either that, or when my sister needs to use the computer she asks me "are you almost done?" and that usually ends my merry go round. When I am into something, for instance, when I am on facebook, and there's actually things to do, like comment on pics, or converse with a whole group of people, I can literally stay on there for long periods at a time, unless of course I have work to go to or homework to do.
Now a days just about everybody knows how to use technically up-to-date and sound technology. Well I'm not sure about everyone, because my mother still does not know how to use a computer correctly. Sometimes I find this real weird because we all know we got things to do buy yet we still find a way to put 2 + hours into going on myspace or facebook everyday. We waste our time doing unimportant things on the web while we know that we could do real important things like a big homework assignment, or taking care of your son; come on ladies.
I must admit though, there are some positives that come with the new technology, we are able to find long lost friends from elementary and all the way up to college and beyond, from friends who moved to co-workers that never showed up again. You are able to meet up and have fun and catch up on old memories. I just question some people, who literally stay on computers all day, and I wonder how this may affect their vision, the way they see all kinds of things, or maybe if it even helps with some things. I know that before, when I was much younger, I used to have glasses and bad vision, obviously, and since I started using computers, years back, I really got better with vision, don't use glassed any more, and looking sexier than ever feel me?

i really liked your post. i liked how you put a list of the positive things as well as the negative things. its good to read how there are different sides to the whole topic. its true how we have to fight with our siblings just to get on the phone or use the computer if there is only one in the house. you really added your life in there and talked about how it really affects you and what a impact it makes on you..so if you didnt use it as much as you did, what would you do with your free time? do you think that technology is preparing you for your future and what you need to do?..what would you try to change for your kids in the future so they dont turn out the same way?
