1. How does Technology Affect the Society? Technology affects the society, by using energy that we can use for other things. We could be using that energy to make food so we could survive. Some things that people put on computers are completely useless and things that get put on the internet are not always the best. Some of the newer technology cost more money that could be used for other things like food and clothes or school accessories. The good things about technology are the internet on computers is a good recourse if there are no books. You can keep track of things on your own profile on a computer. You can communicate with others online. Although technology is a good thing a lot of people just have so much time on their hands that they can come up with new and improved stuff every day. Like for example I hear that they are making tractors that have touch screen things in them. They also have made cars with touch screen navigators.
