Week 10

So i havent exactly kept a log as such but i have a pretty good idea of how much technology i use everyday. Im on my laptop atleast once a day, i check my phone every 10 minutes, my tv will be one from 530pm onwards and my radio is on every morning. How on earth would i love without tachnology?It seems as if i use technology pretty frequently but im sure this is probably the norm for many other poeple. therefore i think i would be somewhat midway on the continuem. But when you compare my daily usage to a third world country i would say im extrememly high on the technology usage continuiem. I think it depends whether or not we have access or the technology to use. I see it that we are extremely lucky individuals. Secondly i found our last lecture really interesting. I had heard of this one laptop per child scheme, but i had never really thought that deeply into the subject. I never thought of food being far more of an essential to a laptop. Obviously food and water is a neccessity in developing countries, but i also see education to be an equally important matter. In conlusion i feel they are equally important and they should grab whatever they can, whether its food, water or education.

I agree with you, i mean its not until you think about your daily usage of media and technology that you realise that within todays society our access to these things have become just as important to the tool we use to survive such as food or water they are all equally important to us because we have an equal dependency on all them so i guess why shouldnt everyone have the same access as we do
