It is so difficult for us to live without them because they are our partners in life that can makes our our works efficient and easier. Therefore, we are much dependent on them. Technology made our lives simple but much dependent on it. We can sit in everywhere and get connected to the world. Communicate to a person in remote area within fraction of seconds, make a trip of the world within no time, all these are possible with the advanced technology, making us more dependent on its usage. Technology is making the multitask functions to be available single gadget. Thus, we can have multifunctional usage of the single device we had. The more simple, the work gets with technology, the more we get dependent on it. 

 

Today, we don't find even child without using available technology to him/her. Technology made us dependent on it and we can't expect or imagine a life without using the word "technology" in it. All I can say is that  my life would be boring without gadgets. Hence, gadgets/technology plays a major role in our lives.
