Technology innovations are fascinating and always if done in right direction have huge impact on society. Companies like Apple , Google , Microsoft, facebook have been front runner in innovating products and changing our life .
Question arises :
1. How do u balance innovation and its impact on human lives.
2. Is there need to have regulation on who can use technology or not in this world where freedom to live life is given.
High innovative impact to scoiety has been brought by :
1. Driven by Mobile Smartphone
2. Penetration of high speed mobile broadband
3. Entertainment contents - Games , Music , Videos
4. Open platform to develop and deliver applications
What's the impact on society :
1. iPhone and other smartphone have changed our experience of using devices and along with backend ecosystem of games, music , videos and application to meet individual and business needs.
2. Business can be done from anywhere using mobile broadband services and access to business applications.
3. Increased revenue for people even poor daily wagers - plumber , taxi driver , labor etc by using simple phone
4. Social netwoking site facebook has changed the way we interact and share with each other . This has helped us to update our status, liking , photos and more importantly connect to old friends. Even business has understood using it for marketing and taking feedback.
That sounds good , but key question arises what the negative side:
1. Addiction to smartphone this can be gauged by our anxiety if don't use it for a while. Smartphone being key companion.
2. Being on facebook to overcome loneliness , looking forward to chat and expecting comment . Lack of human touch and intercation.
3. Adiicted to applications particularly games
Overall human behaviour is changing and needs are fulfilled by machine, software etc .
Look at impact of this on kids who needs atmosphere of natural growth and learning . Question arises :
1. Does all above at early age good for them ?
2. If not then how do we keep they away till certain age?
What i feel its important to have following in place :
1. Usage of product should be regulated at certian age .
2. Parents should be more educated of its negative impact ,
3. Parents need to regulate themselves
- I see parents have kids below 13 on facebook and they take pride in same.
- Due to busy schedule and our inability to handle kids patiently , we pust them towards gadgets use for games , facebook etc .
World of future is all about connected machines and human being through smartohones and social site . We still have time to protect kids from being lost into this web of virtual work at young age.
They have age to enjoy nature , learn natural sports and learn through experience.
Is it the responsiblity of only parenst to protect kids or innovation makes also have duties towards society or regulation is the way .
Opinion expressed above are personnal , u are welocome to comment and suggest.
