For the Second Time

Ok...so i apologize in advance this entry will most certainly not be of the caliber of the first one i wrote. Thanks to my "bloggin" ignorance i deleted my entire entry and it is now 12am..So not ready to do this again. However, my frustration brings me to my definition of technology. Technology to me seems like a tool made by man to make life less complicated, and to make everyday task simple. I personally am not a fan of all technology. For instance some computer software is designer to think for the user rather than to wait for the user to designate specific responsibilities to the software. For example...spell check in windows. It is assumed by the program that you don't know how to spell because on occasion as i am sure everyone has experienced it corrects or replaces a word based in the software’s knowledge of grammar and spelling. I hate that. yes it does come in handy at times, but when i write a paper with an name not in the dictionary and it underlines it with that stupid read line i get mad. Now I’m looking at a paper splotched with red marks. Soo frustrating. Another reason i have slight distaste of technology is because i feel like it is created with human leisure in mind, as a way to make the human even more lazy. technology makes life easier but by doing so eliminates certain qualities that make life worth living. I can honestly say i don't know what i would classify myself as because though i am against technology in some forms, i am a huge supporter in other. (Hypocrite i guess would fit. ) The difference in technology and narrative is huge. A narrative to me is a story. More specifically a story told by a human verbally to another human. (although some books are very good narratives, usually i would generally prefer to hear the story rather than read it) Secondly a narrative must in some way enrich the life of another person. it could do so in the slightest of ways but any effect it has, I believe is of great significance.

Honestly i have more to say about narratives, however my frustration with having to re-write this so late at night is really crippling my ability to think.

In short Narrative suggest human contact and interaction, whiOk...so i apologize in advance this entry will most certainly not be of the caliber of the first one i wrote.

In short Narrative suggest human contact and interaction, while technology suggest a "advancement of some sort" strictly for the purpose of making life as simple as possible. Simplicity has the power to destroy.
