Technology. Most people when they hear this term think of space exploration and ‘hover cars’, but what people fail to do is consider the most basic types of technology that have shaped our past, present and future. Things like electricity, and the creation of jobs as a bi-product from electricity were the very basis for the way we live today. Business is one of the main consumers of technology, due to the fact that the laziness of humans. Most humans will look for the easiest, and quickest way to complete a task. The one thing that people don’t realize is that technology isn’t always the solution for every problem; people try to fix a problem by creating something new to replace the problem; but this causes more problems. People must adapt to the new technology whether they like it or not, “The assimilation of a new technology and technological environment creates a new type of human existence”. One such example is the creation of typewriters. The creation of typewriters may have been the starting point for one of this days most common, and useful pieces of business equipment… Computers. Without computers you wouldn’t have the Internet, without typewriters you wouldn’t have computers, and this must also be considered… ‘Without the laziness of the human race, you wouldn’t have typewriters’.
