Technopolis

Minneapolis.jpg

The technopoly is a society that introduces new technology constantly without necessarily looking at the repercussions of the technology. The word means technopoly means technology city and as a US citizen that is what I've been raised in. Lets look at some technologies. A technology is any tool which is utilized ranging anywhere from a pencil to a typewriter to a computer to a satellite, etc. From class we learned that the introduction of a new technology changes everything. Technology is always both good and bad, super hero and super villain. The advancement of technology is all around us from the cloths we wear to our watches, cars, furniture, music players, to the tallest buildings we can find. We are living in a technopolitan city in a technopolitan country.
