What if?

What if all of our electronics suddenly stopped working? What would you do? How would your life change? Americans, as well as, the entire world has become extremely dependent on electronic technology. Almost everything nowadays is relied on computers and cell phones. Businesses use computers to do complicated work faster and more efficient in order to do the best job. The internet is the main source of information and if something happened to it everything would suddenly become chaotic. Nothing would happen "instantly" any more such as communication and obtaining information. Young people do not realize how new cell phones and computer are to our culture. The dependence on this new technology is not a good thing at all because what if this technology all the sudden stopped working? Nothing would be the same and people would have to completely change there lifestyles. I find myself sometimes getting mad whenever my computer is being slow or is not working to my satisfication. Those types of actions really made me realize how dependent I, and other individuals are with computers. Almost every single person in America have both a computer and a cell phone. Cell phones allow you to be mobile and still have communication almost anywhere. When we do not have signal, we become heated. There is a battle going on about which cell phone company has the most coverage. Technology is only going to keep increasing and people are going to keep becoming lazier. This could have a very negative result.
