Technological Advances

No one can deny that technology is transforming the way we live at a breathtaking rate.It is hard to believe that only a few years ago the great majority of people were still communicating by letter and traditional telephones.Now e-mail and cell phones are rapidly replacing the old forms of communication. Just around the corner are robot vacuum cleaners and cars which automatically keep a safe distance from the car ahead.
  All these technological advances make our lives increasingly more comfortable and convenient,Just as the dishwasher,clothes washer and dryer and microwave oven made life easier and created more leisure time for our parents generation,the technological advances of the future will create an even more leisurely life for the future generation.What worries some people,however,is that the technological devices which are transforming our lives are at the same time leading to less human interaction.In the future people will have to be watchful to prevent technology from diminishing our personal contacts with our fellow human beings.
