At present, digital technology is advancing so rapidly that even teenagers notice
that they are living in a world of incredible innovation, smart devices and genius
tools. With all of these advances in technology come some really cool gadgets.
Apparently, new gadgets are being released all the time and almost everybody is
using them. As teenagers have so much confidence with technology, using a
range of gadgets comes very naturally to them. Now it's common to see kids
teaching their parents how to use their new smartphone or record their favourite shows on digital TV!
There's no doubt technology is a valuable tool for people of all ages, for both
work and play. It makes lots of things easier, it saves us time and it helps us to
connect with people in other places. However, like anything else, technology can
be harmful. For example, people nowadays tend to spend more time on social
media sites than socialising with their friends in the real world. So it's up to us to
make our own choices about how we use technology and to find a balance so
that it doesn't control our life, but is right there when we need it.
