Hi Mervealtug. I think we do not have to buy some gadgets if we do not need them. I do not have any Ipad or Iphone or whatever, since I do not need these. However, I need a computer for making money online, and for online transactions. I do not have a printer too, since I seldom print things out. I think the most important is to determine whether we need a particular technology or not. If I were to live alone, I will not buy TV, washing machine or rice cooker. I can do without all these.

I'd disagree that technology made things more complex. It made things more convenient. Well perhaps for those who have lived longer without it, it is a bit harder. Granted, I'm getting to the point right now, where some technology is right beyond me a lot of the times but I try and adapt the best I can, because society in general doesn't care about those who are not getting within the times. Granted, with each piece of new technology it is baffling. There was a time where books were this hot new technology and I'm sure people thought they detracted from the simple pleasures of life as well. It can be a culture shock but once you grow accustomed to technology, it does make things more convenient. Well for the most part anyway.

When we were baby, walking was really hard and complex for us. But as the time goes, we're trying hard to walk and do a lot of practice, and now walking is really useful for us. Think it the same way for technology. Read the manual, practice by use it frequently. And then, technology may help your life a lot. Never blame technology, just blame people who are too lazy to read manuals..

I am not sure what technology you mean. Yes computers are everywhere and the internet is huge so how does this apply? If for example banking, I remember standing in long lineups waiting for cash. Now we have a machine. Is it more complex? It is if you think it will always spit out money endlessly.

I think technology brings ease to people, not complexity. For instance, You could save your time with the help of technology by doing everything on Internet.

I think it is to different people . For the younger , the technology seems make their feel easy and they are curious to learn this . But for older people , they feel it is too difficult to learn the new technology ,then they believe the technology makes life complex . And to us ,we are developping the technology and some think this is great and others think this is hard for us . So ,it is depend on who you are and if you can learn this well .
