The positive and negative impact of new technology on my life


New technologies are very present in our diary lives. We use them many times in a day, so we really need these gadgets to do a lot of different things . But what are their impact on people's lives?


On the one hand, they're very useful in a lot of situations. For example, we can hear MP3's in the underground or in the bus when we're bored. Indeed, we can take them everywhere because they are not very big and we can keep them in the pocket. Moreover, new computers have permitted the development of programs which are used in lots of experiments. In fact, these experiments are important for the creation of new medicines which could save a lot of people. In addition, new computers help people to do work quickly. We can also use computers to buy things at home by the internet.


On the other hand, new technologies have many negative effects. Firstly, new technologies can destroy a few jobs because now companies prefer to use computers instead of human work. In some cases, new computers are more productive than people. Secondly, young people could become addict to new video-games (Play Station, Wii, XBox...) and pass everyday playing instead of going out to the park with other boys.


In conclusion, new technologies are very important for everyone because they have a lot of positive effects on human advance. However, there are still some negative effects but on the whole they are less important than positive effects.
