A composition about technology

Many people think that early technological developments have accomplished more achievements* in terms of increasing people's life quality than recent technological developments have done. I disagree with this view.

Firstly, recent technology has revolutionised our way of living. The appearances of smartphones and wireless internet connection represents that the way of communication is entering a new age. By using this new technology**, people are able to contact each other no matter where they are without paying expensive telephone fees. This interaction on a global scale has become more affordable to normal people. Anyone can interact with celebrities, superstars and politicians in social networking apps such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, because everyone has access to them*** with little cost. I believe these have helped people more than the invention of the telephone did.

Moreover, the early technological developments emphasise developing principles, while recent technological developments are targeted at application and scientifically innovation****. The majority of scientifically technology that people are using nowadays in their daily lives, business communication and health care services were introduced during the past two decades. Many old machines and devices have become obsolete since they were no longer [difficult?] and effective compared with new machines and devices.

Last but not least, the development of on technology is usually a long-term process that might take decades or even a hundred years or so. All the recent developments and innovations are based on the early researches and inventions. For example, the computer and the laptop, the home-line telephone and the mobile phone, all developed from the former to the latter. In most situations, identifying early and recent developments can be difficult.

In conclusion, I disagree with the view that recent technological developments have helped people less than early technological developments did.

*[You can leave out "achievements"; the phrase "accomplished more" is enough.]

**[Or you could say "these new technologies".]

***[Or you could say "can access them", but I prefer "has access to them".]

****[Is this what you meant? I guess you could say "applying scientific methods of innovation".]

[Very professional! Keep up the good work.]
