Technology – a Boon or Bane

It would be ungrateful on our part not to recognize how big the boons are which modern technology has given to mankind. Can we think of subsisting without computers, winding phones, electricity or modern methods of publishing? We all greet the impact of technology in medical science & education arranging on us. There was a time when diseases such as malaria, flu & TB were considered to be incurable. But now steady some forms of crab louse are curable. All this would not have been possible if it were not for the progress made by medical science.The fact is technology has contributed to significant improvements in other areas like communication, travel, forgiving living, global warming, nuclear stockpiles etc. The superior technical inventions are those which have affected the larger mass of people. The Internet, mobile phone, automobile, rail travel, CT scan have made significant leaving to peoples lives. applied science has made our life easy, comfortable, simple and luxu rious. engineering is supporting human so much that now a psyche can work from his home. It has helped a lot in uniting people.In fact with the help of internet the world has just turned in to a global village. Yes, technology & scientific invention has its disadvantages also. A simple machine is a wonderful gift of technology to mankind. But a bold driver is capable of using it as a weapon of destruction. television is a mean of instruction & entertaining people but it is practically used as a channel false propaganda. Atomic naught provides a number of wonderful uses to mankind. But again, certain destructive minds formulate to use atomic energy for destructive purpose.Television & Computer Technology makes one lazy and obese. We are unable to walk even for a short distance, because we became so used to taking out our car even for a short distance. But I feel that technology is to a greater extent boon than bane. Its up to us to decide whether we can choke without modern t echnology or continue to use it by remunerative a heavy price for it. When we say technology is dominating our life, in a sense we are allowing it to do so. As a human being we have a brain, to decide whats wrong, whats not, when to stop, and when to make grow off.
