Technology = a better world???

I'm not really fan of technology, but I can't deny that a lot of technological devices are important pieces in my daily life. My mother's laptop and wi-fi at home have become super necessary, handy and useful for me. I can't even imagine me in the "metro" or in a bus without my mp4 music. . . just because I hate every noise around me (people's comments indifferent for me, bus noise, etc)

I always ask myself what about our lives without those gadgets... will be complicated, horrible, awkward or just will be better in all terms. I don't know... I just know that if we could have knew that some people were going to do or create stupid things through Internet our world would be better... may be.

Let me give you an interesting poem that I found on the web...may be it sounds funny... but it's true.

Remember When

A Poem About Technology

A computer was something on TV
From a sci fi show of note.
A window was something you hated to clean
And ram was the cousin of goat.

Meg was the name of my girlfriend
And gig was a job for the nights.
Now they all mean different things
And that really mega bytes.

An application was for employment.
A program was a TV show.
A curser used profanity.
A keyboard was a piano.

Memory was something that you lost with age.
A CD was a bank account.
And if you had a 3 1/2" floppy
You hoped nobody found out.

Compress was something you did to the garbage
Not something you did to a file.
And if you unzipped anything in public
You'd be in jail for a while.

Log on was adding wood to the fire.
Hard drive was a long trip on the road.
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived.
And a backup happened to your commode.

Cut you did with a pocket knife.
Paste you did with glue.
A web was a spider's home.
And a virus was the flu

I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head.
I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash,
But when it happens they wish they were dead.
