Articles Deluxe

I have always loved reading technology articles ever since I was a little kid. My dad had assumed that the fascination would leave me and that it was a passing phase, but in fact this was not the case. Although I never became a high-tech professional like my father feared, nonetheless I have continued reading technology news articles to this day. My technology article fascination illustrates quite a contrast between me and my parents. Although we get along for the most part, we have radically different views about the world.

You see, both my father and my mother are what you might call Luddites to varying degrees. My father is especially anti-technology. If you go back far enough in his family tree, you can see that he comes from Mennonite stock. Although he claims to have left this heritage behind, in some ways he is still a believer. Not only does he hate technology articles, but he seems downright hostile to all things high-tech. He just barely started using e-mail, and still avoids the Internet whenever possible. He always feels nostalgic for a simpler life, although why he feels this way I can’t possibly imagine.

I am as different from him as different can be. I love technology articles because I love all things high-tech. Keeping up on the latest developments is not just a matter of fascination with new products. What really interests me is the way that technology changes our interaction with the world. He feels like technology brings us farther apart, but I am sure that it brings us closer together. With the Internet, cell phones, and web publishing, we can really share our lives across the entire world. More and more, distance is meaningless. Soon, differences may be meaningless as well.

Science and technology articles are also important for other reasons. New developments in medicine may become important in my own life and the life of my family one day. Who knows when one of us might get sick? By keeping abreast of the latest developments, I can help ensure that we will all live long lives. In my opinion, there is nothing more important than living a long and healthy life, and technology articles help me find out how to do that. With the latest technologies such as biofeedback and nanotechnology, we may all be living well past the age of 100 soon.
