Effects of Technology

Are we using technology as a lifestyle rather than a tool? (Part 6)

Today it dawned on me once again that we would be in a real mess without our technology that we love so much. How many of you can recite friends phone numbers? How about your immediate families’ phone numbers? I am guilty!! I needed to write down my daughter’s cell phone number today and I had to check my cell phone. I felt terrible! What decent mother could forget her daughter’s cell phone number? Then I began to think, how many phone numbers do most families have? (home, cell for each family member, work for all working family members, school for school age family members …) No wonder I “temporarily” forgot my daughter’s cell number! Looking from my perspective, I need technology to keep me organized. I don’t know about you, but I do not want to give up my gadgets!
