Have you ever
thought who is the human’s
best friend of 21 of
century? 100 years ago this position belonged to a dog. Nowadays the
situation has changed. People have started to replace their pets. A pet should
have four legs (some exceptions two),it can move without any help, it should
have own brain and it usually makes some sound. The pets of 21 century also
have own brain and made some sound, but there are naturally made by humans and
they consisted of human devices.
According to one
study, computer has overtaken the role of dog in the family. If you can notice
people take their computers and all the other kinds of new media everywhere
with them. If they feel lonely they can do one easy step, log to the social
network and the problem is solved. They are very sensitive and squeamish about
their computers. They always have to have a special place in the house, in
the school, in the car, in their personal bag. Some people can’t
survive one day without their loving pet called Computer.
,, According to an
online poll of British adults conducted by Computeractive magazine and animal
charity RSPCA, Researchers found that just 6 per cent of us
believe that 'most people rely more on their dog than they do on their PC',
while 67 per cent think the opposite to be true. Even 38 per cent of dog owners confessed to relying more on their PC than on
their dog, although 36 per cent disagreed.“ And 71 per cent of 18 to
24-year-old dog owners said they relied more on their computer.
People, even the ones who owns dog spent more of their time on the computer
than with their dog.
Thinking about society right now, this is not that shocking outcome of the research.
So what is so special about the PC than our loving best friend doesn’t have?If they don’t see their dog, they miss him but when they don’t have any
access to their computer they feel detached from the entire world.
People are
getting addictive to the internet. They do everything through the internet. They find their friends, their husbands and
wifes and they prefer to spend their free time surfing on the net than going
out with their friends. Instead of writing personal diary people are getting
use to write whatever they want into their blogs. Doesn’t matter if the information which they share is
valueable or not, they just want to show off in front of their new computer’s
friends, which they haven’t even seen live.
Computers have too big influences of our life, nobody can argue with that.
Which function from the dog
has computer overtaken? Their is
a statement about computers which says : ,,Without computer you can never
get bored.“ Is it really so?
But we should think about one
important thing. When our computer stop working and it is dead we can just
easily replace it. But when our dog dies we can’t replace him so easily.
Can you think how long have
you survived without using your computer or any other kind of new media? Have
you been thinking about it a lot or was it easy for you?
