Addicted to technology?

Do you think you’re addicted to your cell phone or any other technology? Well Edmond Shing talks about how our society is becoming more and more addicted to technology in the video on IBT. They even have professional psychological help for technology addiction like they would with drug or alcohol. It might seem like a bad thing, and don’t get me wrong it most defiantly can be. But then again think of all the respectable things that are coming from this new age of technology. As Mr. Shing pointed out, we have new technology such as the “iwatch”. This technology is allowing people get into the mindset of healthy habits. The technology can not only record your pulse, distance walked/run, but also your time slept and calories burnt. Even though Mr. Shing is mostly referring to this technology in the UK, I still think that it very much applies to what is happening in the U.S.
