Technology is a good/bad thing

When addressing technology I am talking about computors. They are good in the sense that almost everything is at your finger tips. This tends to make life much easier for most. You can pay bills, job search, fill out applications, form new relationships, and stay in touch with friends and family, and even do your shopping. An though this all sounds wonderful, in reality it is just as damaging. What about the effects for these so called easier things. Like the lack of mail due to online bill payment, emailing, or e-cards, this has a large effect on our postal service. Less mail, means less workers need to sort and deliver mail. Then what about those who don't have computors, may applications can only be filled out online, which makes it inconvenient for those people. Doesn't it show more enthusiasm for someone to actly take the time to go to a establishment and fill out an application. This shows they really want the job. As far as forming friendships on line you are taking the risk of knowing whether or not that person on the other end is really who they say they are.
So my stance on computors they may make tasks easier which is a good thing but the bad effects can be far more then we expect.
