Technology

The past decades have witnessed a fantastic spurt in sci-tech, and this engine empowers a profound shift in the way people interact with each other. However, this shift to technological relationships between individuals in society can be viewed as a positive, despite a few cons.
Firstly, it is evident that technology reduces the restriction on distance in interpersonal contact. There are various apps like Facetime and We-chat, which enable us to chat with friends thousands of miles away. All we need is just a portable electronic device, such as an iphone with an network available.
What’s more, easily avaiblable tech enables more opportunity to aquire acquaintance with more people. For example, Twitter, as well as a variety of other social networking sites serve as platforms for users from different backgrounds to establish friendship on the basis of similar interest. It is this kind of tech-wonder that extend our communication circles, thus helping us avoid feeling lonely - especially for those children without brothers or sisters.
Another surprise of this technoligical advancment we can not neglect is its contribution to the improvement on the accuracy of information collected. It can make our words clear enough to be understood via phone calls. Besides, e-mails and text messages sharply shorten the time spent on the delivery of information, all of which promotes the efficiency and effectiveness of our action.
All in all, I believe that the effects on relationship brought by technology are an absolutely positive mark of the progress in human history, though there exist some drawbacks in a sense such as people with little awareness of self-protection are easily cheated online. Whatsmore, the addiction of making friends with unknown people may lead to the indifference to relationships among families and friends in reality, etc. The solution to these minor drawbacks lies in our ability to distinguish between the true and the false.
