These are the days of quickly growing technology, Facebook, and Blueray discs. Have you seen the movie "Wall-E?" I believe that is how we are going to be. Sitting in a chair all day, massively obese, and talking to people on screens two inches from our faces even if the person is right next to us.
Technology is allowing us to talk to people easily and quickly, but it doesn't let us socialize as directly as talking on the phone would, or meeting in public. We are getting sucked into the social websites that are growing, except for Myspace, that's shrinking, and it's like we aren't as physically close to people as we could be. I suppose we can get to know each other by talking online, but we lose that connection that we can have with people, which I love having.
Another thing that people are very interested in right now are robots. Those scare the crap out of me. They're cool, but I've watched one to many "robots take over the world" movies to trust the intelligence of something made of metal and plastic. With this new intelligent Watson, it's getting closer and closer to an "I-Robot" situation. Hopefully Will Smith comes and destroys all of the robots before they try to take over the world.
Yesyesyes. But I hope it's Matt Damon with his sniper guns (instead of smith..)
ReplyDeleteOoh, that would be perfectly fine with me, too. :D
