Technology

Technology these days in the world is at an amazing level. It seems every month there is something new and improved out there on the market. In an article from the New York Times i just read it talks about how anybody can go to and download a virtual Cyber life. In the game you can pretty do anything you want. By paying a subscription fee you earn money that you can spend on in the game. The article talks in a way that you are living a life through the computer as you can control anything and move anywhere. To get around you can walk or fly or teleport instantly. The 256 by 256 grids are the area through the game you can move to. The article talks about what you can do on the game and the choices that you have. It seems today with more and more technology that people rarely talk face to face anymore. People are becoming less social and have less social skills. Games like these may become addicting. I personally know people who are addicted to virtual reality games and it consumes their lives. I dont think virtual reality is bad, I love playing video games but when those games become addictive and become really high on priority lists is when it becomes harmful.

Just remember when using the internet to communicate with others. BE CAREFUL
