This picture is example of how technology is advancing; it a new way to charge you devices without all the hassle of chords and finding a socket to plug it into. I am in-between on the decision of whether or not all this technology is good or bad for us. It’s good for us because you don’t have to have a million things in your home and you can have only four or five that does pretty much everything the others in the house taking up space can do. I fell it is bad because the technology in the world now is making people lazy and always depending on technology. For example kids use to have fun outdoors exploring the world and being active but now and days all most kids want to do is play video games and be on the computer. My little cousin is 8 years old and she is very smart. she knows how to create social networking account such as Twitter, Facebook and, MySpace. When I use to babysit her she always wanted to play outside you couldn’t get her to come in the house for anything not even a drink of water. Now that she has learned how to create such accounts and how to work a computer now when she comes over she goes straight to the computer and you can’t get her outside for nothing.  I feel as though not all technology is good for us. As cited by Cristen Conger from Discover News “Rechargeable batteries can contain metals that may be harmful to the environmental if not disposed of properly,” said Carl Smith, CEO of Call2Recycle, a rechargeable battery collection program operated by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation. “So, it’s better to keep them out of landfills.”
