Five Things We Need to Know About Technological Change

This article, by Neil postman, talks about how technology changes the world. The author takes into account the fact that technology has its advantages and disadvantages, and that it does not add to, but changes life as we know it. Technology helps us because it makes life easier and we can do a lot more with it than we could without it. Unfortunately, technology has also caused pollution of air and possibly even a complete climate change. The important point of the article, though, is that technology has changed all of our lives, for the better and for the worse. In order to figure out if technology is really worth it, the pros and cons must be considered, and if the pros outweigh the cons, then the technology is most likely worth it.
