How this blog has enhanced me
My blog has enhanced me quite a bit so far this semester (even though we've only been in the semster for about 3 weeks). I have never had a blog of my own before this class, so it is pretty exciting to finally have one of my own. The great upsides of having a blog is that it is a great way to reveal information about yourself to the world (assuming you feel comfortable exposing this personal information) as well as that you can find out information about other people from their blogs. Electronic communication is so handy and is probably the best source of communication that has been invented so far. The only downside so far of having a blog is that I still am a little unclear of how it works, and the username and e-mail stuff is a little confusing (but I'm getting there........seriously). I am definitely positive that I will be well educated on blogs and everything that goes along with them. I am very optimistic that this blog will benefit me a lot in the long run. I hope to learn a lot more information about electronic communication as this class continues to run its course and I also hope that I may be able to teach other people about blogs in the future and that my knowlege about blogs and other educational information about blogs and other forms of electronic education will continue to increase and that I may even someday become a computer genius!!!! Maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit here and there, but I am dead serious when I say that it can be done (did I not say that before? Well I'm saying it now). So please check up on my blog as I create more posts. Have a nice day.
How we will think in 50 years
Many things could be different in 50 years. There will be so much more knowledge for everyone to know; especially about technology and how things have developed or will continue to develop over time. Many predictions say that we will be like robots, or that robots may exist in human forms. A few predictions say that there will be robots or machines that can play sports like soccer or football and that they will be able to defeat the opposing team in an amazing way. Expanding on how I think we will think as humans in 50 years; I think we will think the way we always have thought before; with the exception that we will have much more knowledge about technology and many more modern day conviences to make our lives better (or at least hopefully not worse). I believe that humans will have much greater knowledge about the advantages of technology and we will be able to use them to find a cure for Cancer and AIDS, Diabbetes and other deadly illnesses that affect humans today. We also will have brought about new ways to help save the environment and to control population outbreaks and control global warming, all that good stuff. My biggest hope is that technology will become very advanced and that many good advances will come about and that the world will be very much a better place for everyone. My biggest fear about how we will think in 50 years is that we may depend on technology a little too much and it will end up becoming so advanced that it will take over the world completely and we will all become slaves over its power. I hope very much that technology will be smart but not smarter than a human being. As humans, we should not take advantage of the situation too much so that it will become destructive. We need to be able to find a solution to technology advancement so that it only can help us and not hurt us.
