Digital life has changed how we live in good and not so good ways. Technology has gotten more advanced and it makes some things in life easier for us. We can capture high quality pictures with our mobile devices, use our electronics to look anything up on Google in a few seconds. Entertainment has been a big part of our new digital life with 3D t.v.'s and movies it is incredible what people have done to make these advanced changes in just a few years. Such as accomplishing the iPhone 3,3S,4,4S, and even iPhone 5 soon to be an iPhone 5S in a few years or less. our cars and automobiles nowadays have GPS so we can find our way easily around cities so we wont get lost, using a map for this will make you look so called " old-schooled". There are voice activating systems in the car so we are hand free when we drive to prevent accidents.We can contact family around the world with a laptop or computer to use Skype so we do not need to use long distance calling. There are higher security now and it is easier to catch a criminal on camera  and search up incidents easily with advanced computer technology.
Even though digital life has changed our lives in a good way, it is not always good. Cellphones have made us reachable no matter where we are, which can't be a good thing. When you are away from work, the only way you could be contacted was "via" your home phone but not anymore. With cellphones, you can be tracked down wherever you are. With cellphones people always are on them talking to someone rather than talking to live people who are right there with them. All of the talking, texting, and emailing has made us less able to socialize face to face with others.Kids no longer want to play outside because they have Wii or Playstation in their house to play with. When you go to a friends house now, you dont play "cars" or " "barbies" anymore you play video games for the hours you will be with your friend. iPads, nintendo that are portable have kids/ teenagers bringing it along everywhere with them, which causes bad eye sight and back problems in the future. This goes for everyone now matter how old you are.
It also struck me when my teacher showed us a picture of the kids we were working with to make a story, drawing pictures for the story on the iPad. What happened to drawing on paper and coloring with crayons? Now we can draw with touchscreen and use "paint" to color on the touchscreen.
Digital life has its pros and cons for some things we need to learn how to control but for others, digital life has made life easier and better!
