After watching this presentation I was quite concerned about the growing technology in the world today, and my own ability to participate in it. The world has changed so much in just 10 years and I, for one, can't even imagine where it will be 10 more years from now! I fear that I will not be able to keep up with the advances technology is making in all aspects of life today.
The fact that over 60,000,000 people used Myspace in 2006 is quite disturbing to me even though I am one of those 60,000,000 people. What happened to playing outside and doing things that do not require a remote control with a million buttons and an instruction manual. Technology is taking over the world and it is quite scary to think of what it might accomplish in years to come. I think technological advances have set the world at a faster pace and made it very hard for some people to even keep up. The children of this generation better be very well prepared for a world of computer generated information that will change faster than their brain can even process it.
I realize that I sound old fashioned but excuse me for being a little freaked out that a man-made machine will soon surpass the capabilities of that same man's own brain. Don't get me wrong, I am thankful for the knowledge of these machines and some of the things they have made possible, but I think without proper supervisions growing technology could potentially cause enormous trouble.
