We Are Dependant Of Computers - By Catherine Picard

Did you ever lasted more than one day without your computer? Do you think you could? I don't think so. Our society is dependent to computer. Technology is so advenced that we don't only use computers to play games and comunicate with people but we also use them as calculators, to work, to read, as cameras, as song makers, as shopping system, as dictionaries, and many more things! 

Firstly, people uses computer to escape boredom and reality. Often, the first thing people do when they go home or when they have free time is going on their computer to play all sorts of games. It goes from cards to League of Legends to minecraft and many more. Some people are so dependent that they play for hours and hours without eating, drinking or sleeping. 

Secondly, people socialize more online than face-to-face. Instead of hanging out with friends or getting to know other people, some people stay confined inside and chat online. Also, some people create themselves a fake life to make there self-esteem go up. By having many friends on social media we think that we are popular but in fact, we are lonely. 

People also shop online. With the help of ebay and many more sites, a lot of people buy clothes, food, shoes, glasses and many more things. That's how people become compulsive shoppers. 

In conclusion, our society is addicted to computers. We play video games for hours without stopping, we socialize more online than face-to-face and, finaly we shop online wich lead to people becoming compulsive shoppers. Are you dependent to computers?
