Technology's Affect on the Sharing of Information

Technology affects sharing in many ways. Blogging websites, such as this, creates a faster way of sharing your ideas. Technology makes it possible to share news, information, and thoughts with the rest of society. Information is shared faster, which means more people are able to see information in a shorter period of time. The school portal, for example, is an easy way for students to view their homework with no trouble. Technology is used so much, that a person is more likely to respond to an email than to a letter in the mail. Those were all pros of technology, but their are also many cons. When someone shares information by technology that is public, anyone can see it. Therefore, if the information is perceived in a different way than it was meant to mean, people will respond negatively. The sharing of personal information on the internet is very dangerous, especially for teenagers. Technology is the best way for sharing information quickly and effectively, but only if it is used in the right way. Too many people take advantage of technology and the information shared by it. On the better side, technology allows us to receive news about our country and the rest of the world. It keeps everyone up to date.
