    Positive and negative aspects of Technology.

  • The English dictionary defines "technology" as "the science of the industrial art. It further defines "technique" as the "manner of artistic execution; manipulative skill."
    Microwave- usefulness of technology.
    - Technology can be useful or harmful to mankind, depending on how it is used. Microwave is one benefit of technological advancement.

    - Use technology for your own benefit and comfort, do not allow it to "mis-use you".

    - Do not challenge technology. It is always changing at faster Technology changing at fast rates. rates, with respect to rises in consumer incomes. "What is new this year, becomes old the following year". Newer products are being manufactured now and then, in line with technological advancement. Unfortuantely, consumer income remains apparently the same.

    - Always mind your budget and your needs. This is where the principle of Economics comes in; and it differentiates your needs from your wants or desires.
    When we are faced with the problem of scarcity of resources (e.g. money) compared to our unlimited wants, Economics tells us to satisfy our needs instead of our wants.

    - Technology and Economics.
    Whereas technolology appeals to consumers to spend their money on things they want, economics tries to convince them to think rationally in terms of need, usefulness and affordability.

    For instance, there is no rationale in buying a new computer or car, if you already have another one that "serves you well". This is economic thinking.

    However, some consumers believe in having "top of the range" products. This is technology-driven.
    Sadly, some of these products are acquired on credit basis at times; with interest payable being additional cost.

    - It is therefore prudent to resist what you do not actually need. Do not allow technology to dictate your consumption pattern.

    On the whole, technology can be a menace or a blessing to mankind. It depends on how we use it. The author below explains this in detail.
