What does it mean??

The world is obviously changing. It changes every second of every day and there is nothing we can do about it. It seems as though the world is becoming increasingly obsessed with technology and other advancements like T.V, internet, and other technical devices like cell phones and computers. Its apparant, by watching that video that our world is changing completely. Just in the past twenty yeras or so, society has completely transformed. Its like we would not be able to function without technology. Postmodern thinker Jean Baudrillard believed that society "becomes electrified only by computer networks and electroncic media" (Powell 65). He is pretty much sayinf that we are all motivated by electronics. All the information we want to share is easy to pass along now. It is easy for anybody to communicate or collaborate with another person even if that person lives on the other side of the world! This makes it a whole lot easier for new ideas to be developed and new discoveries to be found. Combining ones research with that of another person is simple. This is why so technical world seems to be expanding so fast. It is impossible to slow it down because as soon as one new piece of information is found, more questions are addressed. Then these questions will be answered which will create more questions and more speculation. It is an unending cycle. It seems like our world is beginning to emphasize science, much like a postmodern society would. It seems very possible that we will be able to function in society by technology alone. I just think that its interesting that we know more now than we have ever known yet that also means that there are alot more questions that are unanswered and these questions just keep going. I think its a really interesting parallel that has been drawn in this world. It seems like sitting at home on the computer would only make the population less intelligent yet in reality, it actually brings more knowledge into the society.
