Why Technology is Important

Technology is an important aspect in our lives today. Today's technology includes computers, iPods, Tv's, GPS's, and E readers. Hospitals even use technology to help patients in need. Computers help make life a little easier because it allows us to type letters without using an electric or manual typewriter to type papers. Without iPods, we couldn't listen to music digitally and connect them to radios without putting in a bulky cd in a portable CD player.  GPS's allow us to navigate far distances with a touch of a button without using a map. Using a map is not only time consuming but requires the knowledge to know how to read the map. E readers allow us to read books digitally also. With computers we can buy our books online or on the e reader itself to save the trip to the library. Without technology in hospitals, we could not monitor someone's heart rate or vital signs to ensure that their well. Without technology, our world could not operate the same way and people would not be able to get treated for their illnesses because they could not be diagnosed by the correct technology needed.
