To dependent on Technology

I believe now a days people are way to dependent on technology. Everywhere you turn around you see someone on a cell phone, listening to their ipod or playing around on a computer. I know for a fact I depend on technology way to to much. If I don’t have my cell phone I can’t function right. I always have to be texting or talking on my phone. I remember one time when my cell phone wasn’t working I literally cried. Why are people so dependent on technology? I believe some people are so dependent on technology because they believe it makes life easier, for example I much rather text someone then to call them and have a conversation on the phone. Sometimes it makes it easier to express yourself. But technology can also come in handy, sometimes it makes paying bills online easier, researching information can be quicker and easier than having to look up the information out of a book, all you have to do is sign on your computer and google anything you want. We may be way to dependent on technology but it sure does come in handy.
