Everyone around the world is adapting to new and different technologies. Technology has become a part of our every day lives and even a necessity for people around the globe. Every year, these companies come out with new technologies, whether it’s a television that has a screen that is flatter than the one in the previous year, smaller mp3 players the size of a battery, or new video game consoles that make games look as real as the world we are in. As I was growing up, more and more technology kept coming out. I remember when my whole family used to play the Super Nintendo with simple 2D games like Super Mario Bros, where every level goes simply from left to right. Then the Nintendo 64 came out and Mario wasn’t running or flying from left to right anymore. He could run in circles now and fly around in the sky and we were in control of everything he did and where he went. Mario was actually chubby with a big nose and in 3D. Then the Nintendo GameCube came out and Mario looked sharp. He can do even more tricks now. Then the Nintendo Wii came out and Mario was this incredible man than can do basically anything he wanted to do, always rescuing that princess that Bowser always seemed to take from him so easily. I use these new technologies every day. I had a favorite show to watch and I started watching during vacation, when I didn’t have to go to schoo every dayl. When vacation was over, I couldn’t watch the show at the time that they put it because my school day was over at 3:10 p.m. and the show started at 3:00 p.m. It’s a good thing that I have a DVR, which lets me record my shows ahead of time so that I could watch it whenever I want. I like playing video games, especially that game, Rock Band, that lets me feel like I can actually play a guitar or the drums when I play in expert mode. When I want to know about new songs that are coming out in the downloadable content, I search it in Google. You can look anything up in [|www.Google.com]. Every time I want to look something up, I search for it in Google. I can’t deny that I want all that technology, especially the iTouch. I see all my friends using theirs, but that’s not why I want it. There are all these games on it that I would play on the long train ride home. I usually read a book on the way home, but honestly, I would rather be playing a game on the iPod touch, while listening to music. I never wanted a sidekick because everyone had them and people in the streets don’t look where they’re going because they're on their sidekick, but I really want the iPod touch. I would actually use it a lot, but the problem is that when more new technology comes out, it means that it is more expensive than the one that came out before. When I was in the tenth grade, almost all my work had to be done online for my English class. It was a little unexpected, but we had to get it done. I would like to learn what new technologies they are going to have for us in the future. I chose this topic because, like everyone else, I use new technologies in my every day life. Perhaps my future job will consist of using this new technology that is coming out.
