Destiny's Thoughts: Writing in a New Way

      After reading both articles, it puts in perspective for me that the world technology is moving at a rapid pace. One day we will be surrounded by screens left and right. I think technology overall is a positive and that it helps everyone gain more information. I think because of it I'm more knowledgeable than I would be if I didn't have it at the tip of my fingers whenever I want. I also can see where technology could become an issue because people's lives get so invested into it. I'm not even used to shopping for clothes in the store because I'm so used to online digital shopping. I consider it just more convenient in my busy schedule. Advancement in technology has both pros and cons.


Reading In A Whole New Way gave me a different outlook on technology and that soon we will live I a world surrounded by screens.

Top citizens getting VIP treatment could help people be better people or it could make things worse. Blocking individuals with  lower credit scores from equal opportunities isn’t fair to citizens overall because everyone deserves an equal opportunity. It even was said that it would block children from attending good schools. Being banned from a flight because of your score seems so insane to me.  The system requiring everyone to pay with their phones so their transactions can be tracked is something I couldn’t imagine happening here in the U.S. I like having a sense of some privacy even though I am aware that our phones are tracked to a degree as well.

Destiny's Digital Discovery

   One of my first memorable digital memories growing up was the use of Youtube. Youtube has endless viral videos. As kids before I had a phone, my sister and I would spend the day watching music videos and parody music videos on our home's desktop computer. Some of our best laughs growing up came from those videos. Today, I can watch the same type of content on my phone and not just on YouTube, but through the social media platforms.
