Timing your Technology

We know that since time immemorial technology and equipments played a big part of our
life. This allow us to spend more time to other things, personal or even work related. As the time
pass by technology has been evolving, creating a vast knowledge with just one-tap of your
fingertips. Upgrading of the technology has been passed by to early up to modern times
technology, which requires the development of the technology. Often, technology has been
debated by a lot of people whether it is bad thing or a good thing to the society. This appears to
be have divided sides.

The ancient times of the technology it is almost crafted by the people. Sometimes we saw
that they are using wood to sort of use equipment that will ease their living. As the modernity
approaches, evolution of technology has been vastly and quickly adapting to the current
environment. It is basically based on the necessity of the place or the demand of the people, to be
specific. To Heidegger, he stated that technology is “enframing” or a utility to be use according
to the relativity to the world. Now, we use technology as part of the growing world, which
enables us to do things easier. In the latter days, we tend to get informations from a book,
journals and interviews which can be found in the libraries. As the time goes by, e-books, e-
journals and even the recorded videos has been upgraded which you don’t have to go to the
libraries to search on things. Heidegger also states that the nature or everything we saw this day,
has been use as a human resource. Which will be use as a business options or even a raw material
to do business. In example with this is a windmill has been giving energy resources to the people
without the help of electricity. In addition to the example, the population is growing thus energy
needs will increase as well, natural resources helps to suffice the need of the humans. This
proves that the technology is upgrading to fit in to the mold of the world. Heidegger emphasizes
that the “enframing” brings disadvantages which turns everything into consumable or disposable
things if it is abused. In the Philippines, modern technology has been opened in the country. At
the website of “The Manila Times” that the country is open for innovation, which helps the
micro, small and medium business to innovate their funding and this is supported by the “RA
11337 or the “Innovative Startup Act”.

The adaptation of technology has been influenced by the needs and demands of the world
and the environment, for it helps to sustain and balance the needs and wants of a person. As the
technology goes by it is upgrading helping the environment, society and the world to elevate the
perspectives of the human. The Philippines is willing to adopt modern technology to help the
enterprises to sustain not just the economy but the country as well as the balancer of everything.
