But let's say someone just answering their cell phone, or doing a quick equation on their calculator, or checking their e-mail on their computer, or palm-pilot. That isn't bad at all. But when it comes to the point where somebody stays on their computer day and night just to "p00n sum n00b5 nd rais ma rnk 2 numba 1 in teh servr, lolz" then I don't think that is healthy for anyone.

I Tehehe I wrote:Technology is helpful with many things such as mass-production of industrial goods, doing things which humans are physically incapable of doing (both in speed, precision and accuracy), connecting people from all over the world and making our lives more convenient; just to name a few.

However, a lot of these technologies have draw-backs. Computers, television and game consoles have become increasingly more common in households and popularity, but because of consistent usage, obesity rates, other health problems and severe addictions (mainly computer games) have and will lead to premature s and unwanted problems. It has also lead to a certain laziness among people and a reliance on technology for our everyday needs.

I believe that technology is good when used in moderation and when we don't become too dependent on doing things "the easy way" with the aid of technology. However, when it is constantly used, (for everything including work, entertainment) I think it certainly creates an unbalanced lifestyle which may lead to future set-backs.

Well as you said every technology has drawbacks so wouldn't it be for the "Greater Good" to remove all technology?
