nowadays modern technology is give advantages or disadvantages?

Yes, I can truly say that technology made us (at least the majority of us) live better, cleaner and in improving conditions of life, greater lifespan and have a better entertaining time.  \nNevertheless  the technology was always put in front of every thing stepping on what Nature gave us and stepped even on the Nature itself. Only when was absolutely obvious that the destruction of the environment is endangering the very essence of our lives, life that technology tries to improve entering in this way into a paradox. \nIn essence technology actually helps even to remedy the mistakes made in the past with  the same technology that made the destruction of the Nature, and....so on. \n\nIs a continuous loop I believe which should never stop, because if the progress stops, the problems remained unsolved, will increase, and if the destruction will continue...will not be for a long time, and even the human kind will perish, under the phrase "Technology makes your every day life better".\n\nAnd that's not all I have to say\nDfriend:)

We all know the disadvantages are death, misery,repression, fright, bodily injuries, rampages, evilness.\nThe advantages would be population control, improved economy for many, advances in technology, employment, nationalism( may unite people who have a common enemy), education about other societies, spreading of ideas.

Benefits are numerous. Computers enable us to make life easy by increasing the efficiency of offices, schools and persons. Science and Arts can make great progress with the help of computers. And we enjoy the fruits of them. Instant communication bridges the gap between people - relatives, friends and enemies, as well as researchers and thinkers.\n\nHowever, computers are not without their drawbacks. They can create an illusion of the world which may be different from reality. Many become so dependent on computers that they feel helpless without. Also, you can get ache, cramps, blood clots and impaired vision from excessive use of computer. Without going outdoors or using cars, together with physical inactivity can even kill a person. Because these can beget diabetes or other serious ailments.\n\nMan will certainly overcome these bad effects and derive much benefits from use of computers, in days to come.

well technology  didnt just happen over 100 years. We had a lil help. We went from having hardly crap and now computers,cell phones, and that damn tv. making people lazier then hell. right now there working on developing a chip that they plant into ur brain thats somthing like the internet. Where u can chat wit other people just by thinkin about it and even listening to music (also makes it easier for the government to keep track of everybody). thats going to make people fatter then hell. Everybody will just stay at home and do nothing all day long. And a benefit of all this technology is that we hardly have to lift a finger anymore.

No, but the lack of a similar increase in psychological growth in mankind has caused our technological development to outstrip our maturity as a species.  The sudden increase in information and the resulting challenges to everyone's world views due to access to the web and instant information should be sufficient to give us a chance to catch up a bit.  Then the technology will be much easier to handle and use wisely.

The advantage is it's free.\n\nThe disadvantage is that is very unsophisticated and gives you very little control as what to allow in or out.\n\nZone Alarm is a much better choice.

In my opinion, technology (of all types, although I believe you were referring to information technology) used in business has primarily benefited consumers by giving them a greater choice of products, and greater visibility into the quality of those products, and it has led to great advances in product safety and into our health.

The difficulty is that technology only gives the power to change. It takes humans to decide which direction to change. Those that love power will use the technology to extend their power rather than to help others. There *have* been many advances made in the treatment of illnesses. Nobody today dies of smallpox. Nobody gets crippled by polio. Nobody goes deaf from mumps. Places with famines can get food shipped in to them.\n\nIn the past, if a crop failed (and this was common), people starved to death. Every place on earth was subject to this fear every year. Even the kings would have the fear of going without at times. Diseases were common and women died regularly in childbirth.\n\nSo, yes, there are diffciulties made by technology, but there are benefits also. The problem is people, not the technology.

The many levels of technology have done amazing things to businesses the list is pretty long but here are the main ones:\n1. Real time communication of customers/employees/systems and other things allow better control of inventory and orders.\n2. More creative reporting tools to streamline productivity.\n3. Sharing data among different areas. (Example - accounting shares data with human resources).\n4. The ability to sell items over the internet as well as out of an actual store.\n\nThere are other areas as well but this just gives you an idea of how technology (Cell Phones - Computers - Internet - GPS and other systems) has changed to face of businesses.

21st Century Modern Inventions:\nhttp://inventors.about.com/library/weekly/aa063002a.htm\n\nWow... there are some pretty cool inventions.  Check it out!

Just about all of the current problems will be gone, one way or another, and there will be new ones to replace them.\n\nTechnology will be light years ahead.  The more things advance and the more knowledge we have the more we are capable of advancing more rapidly.  The changes in the world in the last 50 years will be nothing in comparison to the changes for the next 50 years.

I'm definitely not an expert but, I think it is the advancement of sports, in general, technologically. For example, the difference in today's safety equipment in football and yesterdays equipment. Past to present, the changes that has led up to what see in sports today. All dealing with technology.

There is no two words about it:\nThe technology has helped us, but the only thing is everything has pros and cons. Without technology/scientific knowlege we wouldn't be answering these questions on internet. Technology/scientific knowledge made us realize that stars are not haning lanterns (as mentioned in some folk stories). Technology/scientific knowledge made us realize that the world is not flat and it is not a huge flat surface shouldered by 4 large elephants on a huge turtle that floats on the sea (this is a true mythical idea long time back). \nBut there are bad sides to it too. Golbal warming / wars / pollution and there are many too. It depends on the way people use it. \nBut the next generations will be more brainier than us. They shall tackle these issues too. It is our duty make the next generation brainier, to put them in the right track. \nDon't worry about technology, it is always for good.

Every Invention has got both advantages and disadvantages\n\nInvention is just like a knife with two sharp edged one good and other bad

1). Computers (People don't realize how much we take computers for granted these days. Because computers are able to store, create, and distribute important data, one might think what would happen if we cut computers from the world today).\n\n2). Television (Most people have at least a TV that is used for entertainment, business, and also media interaction. Nowadays, all people have to do is "flip a switch" to connect to the world).\n\n3). Wireless Networking (People have gone from cables to wireless so fast, that it's so easy to forget that dialup and cable cords even existed. With this ability, people can travel with devices such as cell phones, laptops, and PDA's that require just wireless service).\n\n4). The Internet (Through computers, comes the Internet, though they are very different sources. The Internet, which holds any data permanently, can be accessed by anyone, good and bad altogether and regardless of location).\n\n5). Space Technology (It's hard to imagine back in the 1700's that man could actually reach the stars. But since the 1900's, the U.S. and international powers have raced one another to the moon. And through that, comes unbelievable discoveries and can even define why and how we humans live today).

ADVANTAGES: Most powerful mechanical computational devices, able to solve complex problems such as playing games or recognizing patterns, can model complex mathematical equations (such as paterns in virus structures to find cures).\nDISADVANTAGES: Prohibitively expensive for home use, generate tremendous ammounts of heat and thus need to be kept in strictly controlled environment, relatively expensive to design and maintain, are ussually designed with systems to solve a specific problem or type of problem and are thus difficult to switch from one task to another, require a great deal of space.
