Do the computers really make the world a better place?
It's not a secret that computers actually help us a lot and satisfy a lot of our needs. Thanks to computers we are able to communicate faster and better with family and friends who live far away from us and whom we can't see often a year. But thats not everything. Computers help us to improve and make better our work, they help us by doing difficult calculations, predictions and help us to rebuild or reconstruct situations that could be dangerous or not. Thanks to computers, we actually also read more! For instance, people who are using msn messenger or chat programmes, or just the ones who are reading are obliged to read if they want to know something! So We actually spend the whole day reading if we are using the pc.
Anyway, computers actually were made for military uses. So, pc's actually should calculate distances and probabilities. Internet was also a military tool now used by a high percentage of people day after day and just for fun.
It's also a platform for meeting people. Not only good people... and so we can find cannibalism and children pornography or other disgusting or disturbing things not suitable for children.
In conclusion, we can say that computers make a lot of things easier for everyone, and that they are perhaps the best way to communicate with your friends and family or new people, but its also a place were you can find the most disturbing things you can't even imagine. Like everything, also computers have their good and bad things but it's useless to just center in one of these parts. To know the whole, you must focus on every part of it.
