Technology has been around since dawn of time

Key to evolution and survival

Ancient times

Fire

Iron

Stone tools

Domestication of animals

Technology at present

More advanced

Sophisticated

“Technology is the application of scientific knowledge to produce machines and equipment for practical purposes”

Cell Phones

Laptops

LCDs, LEDs

DVD Players

XBOX, PSP

Tablet PCs like IPADs

Internet

We love our iPads, iPhone, Android and laptops a lot.

We crave the Internet and feel disconnected whenever we’re away from the comfort of our virtual world.

“Tell a teen that “Facebook” is banned and watch their eyes bug out in horror”

The fact is that we are so much surrounded by technology that it has become impossible to live without it

Imagine a life without Cell phone!

Imagine a world without “Google”, “Twitter” and “Android”

“He broke her heart and she broke his iPhone……..

Who cried harder??

How do you spend your leisure time?

Remember the last time you played any outdoor sports?

OR

Read “The Kite Runner”, “Aleph” or “PEER-E-KAMIL”.

Huge impact on our leisure activities

Football to FIFA

Newspaper to E-paper

Amazon announced in August 2012 that its eBook sales had exceeded that of their print counterparts.

At one point in time, we used to hangout with our friends and family.

Now it's only socializing on the internet

Privatization of Leisure

No more time for clubs and societies.

No time for Sports

Better “Commentators’’ instead of better

“Players”

Save time and cost

A connected world

Information available on fingertips

Faster and Easier Business

Easy Access to entertainment

Online Education

Video Conferencing

Too much dependency

Social Isolation

Psychological effects

Cultural Diffusion

Health related issues like obesity and stress

No doubt technology has brought enormous

changes in our social live and hobbies

We need to keep a balance between using

technological products and our social

activities.
