technology rant

Well, this might not be just ranting, but I still need to figure out how to put in videos because I think my computer can't handle that... so here goes:
  I think that technology and communicating with it is good... and bad. Yes, it can isolate us, but it has also helped us in many ways and opened up new opurtuneties that without technology like today, we couldn't put to use. But I think its sad when I'm with a friend and they start babbling about they're stats on I don't know... instagram let's say. Or when I get texts from my phone network telling me about some new app you can install, and I realize I'd been looking forward to a text from a friend. But its also handy like Skype, to talk with someone who is really far away. But again, maybe you're to lazy to walk down the street to talk to them. So, I think that technology today is great in many ways, but it depends on how we use them.
  Oh yeah... the creators of all these cool apps and stuff like that. They're great too, but sometimes they take it a little to far. I mean, as technology evolves and completely changes itself, how to we get to the information on the old devices? I think, we should continue to change, but also have access to old and important information on old hard drives and things we just leave... Now to Apple.
  Yes its great, that technology is changing and getting super user friendly, but creating a new iPhone or iPod or things like that really often just to get people to have to update their software, so they can buy the latest iPhone, is just dumb. The first iPod touch is really not that old, so I don't get why people always giggle when they see it. "That's soooo old!" Nope, its not. I think its just greedy to do that. So... maybe I should stop ranting because I'm hungry.
