We live in an age, where every step we make, is crucial, As the advancement of technology and communication is available across the spectrum. Thanks to Face book, Twitter, My space, and YouTube. We have the entire world in front of our grips. (Backtracking). I remember twenty years ago, when I use to write letters by hand, and sometimes waiting weeks for the letters to be delivered, even sometimes even wondering if got delivered or got lost in the mail, but today, with the advancement of technology, we can sit down in front of computer screen and send a message to our friends, family, business clients, and have it delivered to us in a matter of seconds. A great progress for man, Yes! but are we taking it to the extreme? When I grew up, It was never as issue expression your thoughts and viewpoints on anything , but with these new technologies that are available, What you say and do can have long lasting repercussions, especially when it comes to the school, job and public sector of our choice. Everyone is in the public eye. On the other side of the argument, these great technologies, helps us communicate with friends and family , and also bring news, and happenings around the world. At the same time, we have a growing problem, when it comes to literacy around the world , because as each generations come to past, we fail to recognized that reading builds literacy, which will further push the envelope for educating one's mind, For me. The social networking is so important in today's world, but we can't become lazy and comfortable and forget the elements of reading and education one's mind. We have to continue to read, write and research about the world around us , and beyond, because only then, we can reach beyond our expectations. Its the ability to read, write, learn, and apply, which will give us a better understanding, of what it truly means, to have the world at our fingertips.
