Future Technology: Why Study Technology/ies?

As any person should know, technology is a part of our day to day lives like breathing the air. It can be found everywhere. It may be in the form of your cellphone, laptop or any hi-tech gadget or it may be in the simplest form like eating. Technology or technologies are not just tangible things, it is also intangible. Your creative idea can be sought of as a technology heck even plowing with the use of your bare hands is technology. 

Why do we really need to study technology/ies? Because technology has been a part of our lives even since the ancient times, when people made technology from the basic resources that can be found in their surroundings, and these so called technology/ies has made our lives easy to deal with. We study technology because we want to make our lives better. We even fashion things to ease our work. I think there is a need to study technology, the past and the present technologies, because by doing so we can come up with a greater idea. However, if there are advantages there are also disadvantages. The more easy and accessible things are, new technology can also develop bad effects towards its users as it sometimes or rather often make its users depend on it most of the time and it makes them lazy. But although it poses a disadvantage it still sits on how the user uses it.

Right. If humans created innovations from technology, humans then should be responsible for it. So the benefits of technology intended for mankind shall not be turned into bad effects. :D
