Modern Media

Modern media have an huge influence in our lives nowadays; that's a fact we can't deny. But it's that influence a bad influence or a good influence? Has it contributed to the development of our knowledge or laziness?
Well we think modern media and technological gadgets were just extraordinary inventions. They are simply amazing! Just look how commode gadjets like remote control, washing machine, GPS, ... turned our lifes much more esier; how radio, television, playstation and so on make us have so much fun; how amazing it is to have all the information, news, entertainment and communication we need inside our home or with us. Especially for handicaped people, who don't have abillities to have a "normal" life, technological advances, that lead to medicine and equipment improvements, turned their lives much more happier and give them a new hope. Yes, technological advances were awesome to improve our lifes. But how is it possible that some people think that it could rather be a bad influence and a bad thing in our lifes?!
Well that it's the bad side on this all story! People are getting either overweight or obese because they have all they need without moving. Some kind of technology emitts bad radiations that provoque diseases like cancer. How easy it is to make one research work nowadays? It's just open the internet, click and make copy and paste, change the style type, the size, formate and voilá, that's it. We don't even read it, we don't even learn. This is truly sad. But the fault is not from the gadgets, not even of the inventors. All these things were created to make our lives esier, population doesn't know how to use it correctly. Students nowadays have much more information but they don't use it correctly, they don's know how to use it. That is awesome how technology possibilited to everyone the same informations, so that is no excuses to don't do it. But, as we said before, we don't read it, we don't process the information we have. We have it but... what for? We don't use it. If we use it like students in the past used the (less) information they had in books, we were all geniuses, this will be a golden generation, but we don't use rightly, so it's becoming like a "lazy generation" and WE HAVE TO MOVE IF WE WANT TO PROCEED!
We made it be a bad thing! It's our fault. So that is a message for everyone: please take a good care of the use of these things. Let's take the good things that could gave us!!
