After taking time to do a little more research I realized it’s not just a degree that you’re getting from college, but it’s the training, knowledge, and experience that the employers are looking for, not just the fact that someone is qualified with certain skills. So going to the college can either be a setback for me being able to jump straight in or it can be a place that I gain a few more skills and to sharpen the skills that I have now it will also allow me a chance to network with other people that might be able to show me some other skills that could help me in the future. Because I like to hear people’s problems and give them honest advice, so I will take those skills to fuel my passion once I get the job and I am able to patiently listen to the people that aren’t familiar with the hardware and software. I am still interested in pursuing this career because I am able to satisfy myself by doing the job that I want to do and help others in the

Technology, the boom of the 21st century, is considered a daily crucial necessity. Two authors, Clive Thompson and Nicholas Carr, have their own different thoughts about technology. Clive Thompson, a freelance journalist, blogger and science and technology writer, points out in his article, Smarter Than You Think, many positive aspects of technology, on the contrary, Nicholas Carr, author of Is Google Making Us Stupid?, follows the opposite path and tries to convince the audience that technology isn’t as good as we think it is.

The three main central biases of today’s digital tools, as stated by Thompson, include an external memory that can hold more information than our brain, ease of finding and building connections and also technology encourages an excess of publishing and communication (349). Thompson believes that, as a whole, “we are shifting from a stance of rarely recording our ideas and the events of our lives to doing it habitually” (349). Even though technology is becoming a major part of our everyday lives, he does not want us to worry about technology taking over because “they’re a product of software and hardware, and can be easily altered or ended if the architects of today’s tools decide to regulate the tools” (350). Carr contradicts Thompson and believes technology will continue to have a negative effect on us. Carr ends his argument discussing how Google is one of the driving forces of the internet and shows how their willingness to provide “the perfect search engine” where “information is a kind of commodity, a utilitarian resource that can be mined and processed with industrial efficiency” is having a negative effect on our minds and how we think (324).
