Technology dependence’ in psychology parlance is more apt than ‘technology addiction’. Use of technology is so immense that doctors have started recommending to go for ‘technology detox’. Have you heard about this? As per Oxford Dictionary definition of Technology Detox is:

‘A period of time during which a person refrains from using electronic devices such as smartphones or computers, regarded as an opportunity to reduce stress or focus on social interaction in the physical world.’

To understand the intensity of technology dependency, ask yourself (if you use Internet, computer or any such technology) or your friend to spend a day without his or her gadget. Response will be yes I can, just like any other addicted person would give if confronted with the same question. But in reality, one cannot spend even an hour if mobile phone is switched off, or Internet is down, or computer is hanged. Hence today’s world is dependent upon computer, technology and Internet.

There is no denial, cell phones, laptops and other personal electronic gadgets help us to connect with our family and friends instantly. Working parents in today’s busy lives manage everything so easily with the use of information and communication technology (ICT). But certainly these devices are negatively influencing our relationships. A family sitting together has often been seen using individual cell phones or laptops etc.

Technology is changing at the speed of light. After every few months or so old product is replaced by its new version which is claimed to be faster and smarter. Think of a day at office without Internet connection. Though you will be happy for sure and wander here and there without work but ask your boss. Imagine a day without cell phone in your hand or television at your home. Actually these have become an indispensible part of our lives that we cannot imagine such things.

There is a drastic difference in your and your kids’ life, which is just a one generation apart. Those evening games after school, watching cartoons or movies just on Sundays, socializing with friends are no longer a part of life. More than 75% kids play indoor games on computers or smart phones or other such personal electronic devices and watch TV. Technology has given us a choice. A child is free to play games outside but he or she now has a choice to play games on electronic gadgets. Build an atmosphere of motivation and see a change in your kid. Force him or her to play out door games. But as far as office work is concerned or a training that needs the use of technology then of course we are totally dependent upon computers and technology.

We live in modern tech age of information which is dependent upon technology. It has made our life easier. But young generation can be called addicted or completely dependent upon technology. They use all their free life surfing net for entertainment or information.

An article was published in a 2010 New York Times stating that technology is shaping our personalities. According to some experts excessive use of technology make us impatient, impulsive and selfish.

Definitely technology and computer has made work easier which can be done from anywhere at any time but this is also a negative aspect of work. You do not know when your working hours start and when these end. A 2010 study made it clear that use of ICT including computer, email, Internet and cell phones has made work lot more easier but at the same time our lives have become more stressful as workload and pace of work has increased.

A survey was conducted on 12,000 adults from Brazil, India, China, France, Indonesia, the US, Japan and Italy. 61% millenials (whose age is between 18-24 years) think that technology is converting people to less human. 59% feel that society is now dependent upon technology and 36% want technology to become more intuitive.

Experts believe that technology has entered into every realm of life. Even many operations and other such crucial tasks are carried out with the help of computers or just by robots. There are computer driven planes, security apps and devices for women, and at the same time technology fulfill the social needs of human by providing social sites and hundreds of connections.

But certainly we are addicted to the computers, Internet and technology. Gadgets have become an integral part of our lives. But excess of everything is bad and this is applicable to this situation as well. We must give ourselves a break from all the gadgets at least once in a week or so. Can you do this? If not then you are completely dependent upon technology.

When you first think of the word “Computer” you most likely think of a laptop or desktop Computer, but there are many other different kinds of computers. For example, the smart phone in your pocket is a computer; your tablet on your desk is a computer. The possibilities are endless, but do you think our reliance on these electronics is getting a little out of hand? For example we can access our bank accounts just by opening an application on your smart phone. That’s crazy! We have the opportunity to store so much of our personal information on these devices which is definitely convenient, but is it a good idea? How does the computer affect us on a daily basis and does it benefit us or cause problems?

Are We Too Dependent On Our Mobiles?
In the media today, we all hear a great deal about the perils of modern technology. We now can be addicted to the Internet, Facebook and Twitter, not to mention the already existent perils like television, alcohol and drugs.
What isn’t often mentioned is our addiction to cell phones. Maybe nobody talks about it because, unlike Twitter and Facebook, cell phones are such useful tools for everything from friendship to business.
Cell phones have not only become a method for communication, they have evolved into an entertainment gadget. Because these small, hand-held computers seem to do it all, young kids beg and plead for a cell phone.

The twin notions that we see our phones as entertainment devices and that we cannot leave our homes without them demonstrate an unhealthy dependency.
Especially with all the applications and features available on mobiles, designers make it easy to get dependent. Cell phones are now all-in-one gadgets, serving as not only a phone, but an mp3 player, TV, camera, and PDA.
We are dependent on cell phones in the way that we have become dependent on cars or planes to quickly travel. A new study, commissioned by communications company TeleNav, says that our society is obsessed with cellphones. The study sought an answer to the question: Exactly what would people give up before their cell phone? The answer is a surprising amount of life’s pleasures (and essentials).The results show there are differences between the different types of smartphone and between genders, but overall, people were willing to go to great lengths to keep their phone in the palm of their hand.
