10-6-11 (makeup for 9-26-11)

Everyday you learn something new. Throughout my research for my computers project I have found a lot of things about Computer Optimists and Computer Pessimists. Apparently this is actually a huge debate that people have been having for many years. Computer Optimists are the people who find that technology is good for our society. They see that computer technology can be used for something good, like easy connection to information. Computer Optimists see all the good things we can do computer technology but they don't see the downside of these things. Computer Pessimists look at the downside of computer technology. They see humans becoming totally dependent on computers. Computer Pessimists think that computers are replacing our ability to use logical reasoning. I feel that I personally am a mix of both. I play games on computers, I prefer to type things, I'm typing this on a computer right now. I also feel that society is becoming too dependent on computers to the point that they will eventually have drastic affects on the Human Race.
