Castells The Information Technology Revolution

Today we live in a society where technology rules almost every aspect of our lives. From the moment we wake up in the morning, to the moment we climb into bed at night, we, in the western world are constantly using different forms of technology. The development of these technologies has been rapid and unstoppable over the years with technologies such as mobile phones being reinvented and improved all the time. As a society on the whole, we rely on technology to get us through our everyday lives. Think about last time your favourite gadget broke or stopped working. The day seemed to be that little bit harder than usual. And it seems that we are starting off with the use of technology younger and younger. Nowadays children as young as 8 and 9 have their own mobile phones and facebook profiles. This is all a natural part of a developing society, many might say, but others would disagree. There will always be people who choose, for example, not to have a television in their house, but does this mean that they are not as good as people who do own the latest flat screen T.V.? Of course not!
