Article Review

This article talks about how technology has taken our social life. By that, it means we do not talk face to face anymore we just use technology to use it. For example, we can just say “wyd (what are you doing)” and etc. Also this article says it is an “opinion page” but gives informative issues about social media troubles. For example, it says in 1985 “ten percent of Americans said they had no one to fully conifer in.” It has reached twenty-five percent in the present time. What is interesting to me, is I know that technology has been a dominant reliability in the world. But I did not know how bad we use it every four minutes, that is just crazy to hear and also we check it two hundred twenty-one times a day. I mean can we just lay back and go outside and be active. Also in this article it says technology makes us lonelier, which for me I talk to everybody. I use my phone but I do not message them if they are right across form me. I know loneliness can cause anxiety and depression. We do not want that in our society were that can cause serious consequences. It says researchers say that technology does not make us lonelier, but they are tools. I do not believe that on bit when we this read this in class, I seen this happen before and it is not pretty. Because it says social media has a darker side to it. For instance, there is cyberbullying and that is problem with society. It can cause serious troubles and consequences because it can lead to depression and that is why I did not believe that technology cannot make lonely, if you see it yourself. There are also good things about technology, it’s a good resource to use. Mainly this articles says to me is we need to more active and layoff Facebook, Instagram, and etc. Because we have become addicted to it and we can lose ourselves. Also I will say it again we have relied on it too much. I really stated everything I said about informative facts, how its taken over our life, the dark side and the loneliness which it causes.
