No one can escape from the absolute need of technology in our daily life. Every one of us is so dependent on technology that we cannot do without it. Across centuries the technology evolves. We use cellphones and computers to talk to them and even see them. It helps us to keep in touch with people who are away from us. The use of it has made our life comfortable.
