What would you do?

           Facebook, Twitter, and other social networking sites are a part of our everyday lives. Myself and I am sure other log into Facebook several times a day, and maybe post a tweet here or there.  But does anyone remember life pre- social networks and technology?  I do for the most part, but I cannot imagine life today without it or any of the advanced technology that we have today. What would the world be like if at a push of a button all this could be gone?

                I cannot imagine life without my Iphone, laptop, GPS, and countless other things. When I forget my phone I feel so disconnected from the world. Between texting, email, social networks, and games I use it for everything. I grew up in the age of cell phones, so calling friends to hang out on a home phone/land line (a what?) seems almost non-existent.

                If someone were to push a button and all of a sudden cell phones, internet, any new form of technology were to disappear I think the world would legit end. Mass hysteria would break out. People are so dependent on technology it’s almost sad. I think it would be good for our society though. People would then really appreciate what they have, and maybe real communication would be restored. Now I feel more phone calls would be made, and the meaningful letter would be send instead of a text message or “Facebook message”.

                I think we should all take a step back from the fast paced technological world and really appreciate what we have. For all we know one day it could all be gone and we could start from square one again. Take a second and think to yourself...What would my life be without technology?
