I can pick up my cell phone and check my new text messages, Facebook notifications, and emails in less than two minutes. Though I may get in trouble sometimes for being on my phone a little too much, having these new technologies is such a luxury. The devices and Internet programs available to me have affected me in a largely positive way.  As I am getting older and meeting more people who live in different places around the world, having the technology to communicate with them at any time is becoming increasingly useful. I can keep in contact with friends and family, who I do not live near and I can keep the relationships that, without technology, would have fizzled out. Additionally, online resources allow me to keep up with current news from around the world and allow me to learn about the things that interest me; whether it is reading about new scientific discoveries that are happening around the world or looking at the directions to a new local coffee shop, technology allows me to explore and further my knowledge.
