ur very first thought for this project was going to be the benefits of technology and how
they keep the world connected. A large focus would have been on social media aecounts;
Facebook and Twitter for example. We also would focus on other mediums of communication,
Skype and text, and how these technologies keep friends and families together. With these
touch with one another. While
developing technologies, people across the world may keep
developing our idea, we decided to include the negatives of this topic as well. As
develops, it seems that society is becoming more and more plugged into technGlogy. The topic of
developing technologies and social media is defiantly a double edged sword, and itis very

in our project development.

this project; people are concerned about this topic, however there is not much they can do. One
point of information that I have found interesting is that the articles regarding the concer over

topic as much as I am, at the same time they are involved in the social media buzz and texting
frenzy. This may seem hypocritical, but I feel that itis important that people recognize their
addiction so that they may limit themselves. Other than this, I have not been very surprised about
the information I have researched, ass bs
