How technology has changed people's lives.

Technology is the application of mental and physical effort in order to achieve something. It involves 3 stages: tools, machines and automation. The evolution of technology is the substitution of physical labour into machines resulting in a development of production.

This technology has changed people's lives in different aspects. Work is a lot easier and, as a result, people have more free time.

Culture has been changing over the years because of the inventions. Modern gadgets connect everybody to everything, like iphones, internet, to name just a few.

The Internet is the main source of communication and information around the world. People can follow the news and events in a click. Students can do their school researches. Also, another benefit as a result of the Internet is that it helps people find old friends through networking websites like Facebook, Myspace, etc.
The discovery for new technologies seems to have no end. Every time each year people are faced with new inventions, new robots, machines and gadgets that are considered 'must-haves'.

We can predict that the ending of this cycle will regress of people's hearts. Perhaps, someday in the future people will probably miss the old times, when life seemed to be less complicated and simpler.
