The word technology sometimes leads to confusion.
Actually many people think of computers or really funky machines when they come across it. The idea that a pen represented technology in the past or many other simple services created to satisfy people, does not really spring to mind at first.
To think of my favorite piece of technology is rather simple. I have two, though.
I think the first one if my mobile phone. That is for a very simple reason. I like the idea of integration. For me to have a camera, the music I like and a diary with the numbers of poeple I want to ring, is really good I can't believe I used to memorize so many numbers! My brain must be deteriorating big time nowadays. The best part of it is the organizer. This is the only way I get to pay bills on time, send "boletas" on certain dates, etc. I love it. I got it in 2007 and use it all the time.
The second item I'd like to mention is the external disc drive. I think when you have lost all your info because your PC died or because you got it stolen or whatever reason, it can be really tragic. That is why I learnt we need to save info on a safe place that "ideally" will not collapse or disappear. I have complete books, whole albums of good music, and lots of documents that have taken me hours to download or write myself and don't want to lose. I don't remember when I got this but long ago. Could I live without them? Hell yeah! I would have to get used to it, that's all.
Describe your favourite piece of Technology.
Say:
- How you got it
- How long you have used it

ReplyDeleteHi teacher! I think that you movile phone is very modern, and that´s why you love it! But is not a good idea if you don´t used your memory! It´s great for phone numbers, but for bills? I´ll never hear about it!
ReplyDeleteGreetings,

Hi there! i agree with you now, but on my rebel days i refuse to have a celphone! they make you their slave!! but now i've accepted :S
ReplyDeletei can get used to not have one too i think, but it take me some time!!
Hello teacher! I also think that mobile phone is a great invention because now it allows not only call other persons or receive calls, with many of this today you can take photographies, record videos, watch TV and more. It is a wonderful piece of technology!

Hello teacher:
ReplyDeleteI agree with her choice, the truth is that my cell phone and organizer are my highest concern technology is done today and are most necessary for my study and my life!!
Is difficult imagine the world without technology. I think that nobody is capable for to live without technology nowadays. We should try it! Could be a great challenge.
ReplyDeleteSee you Miss
Hello teacher
ReplyDeleteI discovered the external disc recently, and I think that it is very useful, I do not have external disc, but I know that this one serves to guard many information ... for example books. in my computer I have many books, but I continue to prefer to have books of paper because to read in the computer is exhausting...
We meet!
Hi teacher...
ReplyDeleteI think today is impossible to live without technology... almost everyone we use technological objects, also is necessary to integrated the world of information.
see you!
Hi teacher.
ReplyDeleteI think is very important the technology, but can produced confusion. It does not serve ignore the technology for situacion of adversity.
I see you.
Bye.
Hi teacher!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a external disc drive too! i love it!!!!! Now i can save a lots of books and information, pictures, games, etc... i use it because my netbook it's very small and almost have not memory
Well, see you in class!!
it's very interesting what you said about losing capacities because of the development of technology. Rousseau said the same thing in the seventeenth century when he was afraid that technology was going to became us its servants...
ReplyDeleteIm sure that this is a very usefull piece of technology.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I think that we shouldnt give to the techonology a so big importance as a vital necessity (but its difficult, i know)
bye, have a nice weekend!
hi Miss, I also think that the cellphones are useful. Me too I like to be communicating with people and even have my cellphone camera is not what most use of it.
ReplyDeletehi miss, i think the externaql disc drive is so useful on these days because we have to save a lot of digital information, above all for the university and is easier if we can bring it with ourselves .
ReplyDeletesee you! (:
