With the GOOD, Comes the BAD
An example of modern-day communication technology that has a good side, and also a bad side is computers. Computers are a very large part of many peoples lives these days. Most human beings use computers almost every single day of there lives. Computers are able to help people, in all different ages, with there daily uses. For example, students are able to use computers for a number of reasons, they can type out their homework instead of writing it out. They can also watch tv and movies, talk online with there family and friends, play different kinds of games, and just browse on the internet. Those are some of the many things that not only students use the computers for. Many other people, like adults, younger children, and elderly people, may also use the computer for some of those reasons. The list of things to do on computers may go on and on.

Even with all the great things that people may use computers for, there is also the negative side to think about. First of all, computers usually make people lose there sense of social communication. When using computers, there is instant messaging and emailing, but people get so used to that, that they barely actually go out and communicate with the real people. Computers have so many different kinds of features that you can just spend your whole day, starring at the monitor screen. If people use computers too much, that can actually harm there bodies. For example, some may get carpal tunnel syndrome for using the keyboard or the mousse for a very long period of time, some may even ruin there eye sights for starring at the monitor screen, for a long period of time. Also some people may feel really down and depressed if they are always just using their computers, and not going out at all. It is because people need to get out of there houses or buildings sometimes to just get some fresh air, instead of always breathing in the same air. That is very unhealthy for people.
Almost everything has a good and a bad side to it. Nothing is only just bad, and nothing is only just good. With the good, comes the bad.

Hi Meghan!
Very nice post on the pros and cons of computers. Although I know that it can be quite harmful to spend too much time on the computer, I find it hard to resist because it has become a huge part of my life. That could be a bad thing but since computers allow me to communicate with other people efficiently through Instant Messaging and allows me to gather information on different subjects very easily, it is kind of hard to let go.
You are right, with the Good comes the Bad. You just have to learn to live with it.
Hey Meghan, really nice post I have to agree with you about the effects of using the computer, someone like me whos alreays on the computer, it gives us a insight on what otheres think. I also liked how you thought of both pros and cons. Good Job :)
hey meghan,
I agree that computers do play a big part of our lives, and that includes a big part of my own, using it to communicate and get to know people better ;) but with every good there's a bad, thank you for pointing those out.
Hey Meghan
I like that you gave specific examples of the advantages and disadvantages of computers because we need to know these since like you said computers are a big part of people's lives today. Great job on pointing those out.

Meghan,
I agree with the pros and cons that you've listed. I never realized that computers are that big part of my everyday life. Like you said, Nothing is only just bad and nothing is only just good.
